Report. Mayor Christy:
The Claims, Accounts and City Officers Committee met at 7: 15
on October 13, 1964, with Councilmen Willcoxon, Debo, Hawes and
Haake present.
Considerable time has been spent over the last several
., months studying the feasibility of revamping the payment of city
bills. This matter was discussed on several occasions with the
accounting firm then handling our city audit and the recommendations
which will be made by this Committee are agreeable to them.
The Committee recommends that Mayor Christy call a meeting
of all City department heads as soon as it is convenient along with
the members of the Finance Committee in order to fully discuss these
proposals.
If the Council adopts the Committee recommendations we would
, propose that the ordinances become effective on January 1, 1965.
For your information the following proposals will be made:
1. A uniform payment requisition to be used by all departments. This
form has been perfected but will be withheld until after it has been
completely discussed with all effected department.
2. Classification of bills by budget category, effecting a direct
tie in between appropriated amounts and amounts expended.
3. Elimination of the preparation of individual warrant jackets.
4. A new system for submission of monthly bills placing a more
direct responsibility on the various department heads and the Fiscal
Officer.
5. That the Claims and Accounts Committee be given a minimum of 15
days for the investigation of any bill in question.
6. That the Fiscal Officer be given the authority to reject for
payment any bill submitted by a department head for which an
. appropriation was not make, or which in his opinion is an inproper
charge.
It is the desire of this Committee to further strengthen the
Central Purchasing Act by inserting these proposals if adopted and
54
we wish to acknowledge the suggestions of both Mayor Christy and
Fiscal Officer Joe Abernathy.
The Committee also discussed the communication from
the Housing Authority and upon motion of Councilman Debo respectfully
wishes to refer the matter to the Committee of the Whole for detailed

After installation I have had calls advising that while
the lights that have been installed are helpful they still do not

that in the 900 Block of W. High Street for instance, the lights
': are approximately 456 ft. apart, in the 1000 block approzimately
