2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, August 29, 1961 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN MORE NOTES ON CM SYSTEMS St. Catharines, Ont., is advertising for a city ad- ministrator (salary range $12,000-$15,000; age 40-50). Says the ad: "The position is most attractive and the successful applicant will have wide opportunity to demonstrate his organizing, administrating and co-ordinating abilities. The man selected should have wide knowledge of munic- ipal matters and some experience in a senior adminis- trative position in a municipality." This sounds dangerously like an ad for a City Man- ager, except that the above administrator is unlikely to have the full powers of a CM; whether this is so or not, the CM system is gaining yearly in popularity as can be seen by such ads. The reason is simple--the increasing rate of tax- ation ((especially on such items as Education,) has aroused the public. Taxpayers today are demanding more economy, better administration at City Hall lest tax dollars be wasted. It is understandable that the CM system is regard- ed with suspicion by many ((especially in some City Hall circles where it is almost regarded as a subversive movement)) because it is a revolutionary move, espec- ially for a city like Oshawa that is operating under an outmoded, horse-and-buggy municipal set-up that should have been junked 10 years ago, that places an unfair burden on councillors and department heads alike, As an indication of the antiquity of our present system, the mayor is still paid on a part-time basis ($5000 per annum) even though the mayor is the chief executive of the municipality. Let it be clearly understood from the start, that the CM system can't succeed without the interest and sup- port of the public; There are strong arguments pro and con on the subject and it is anything but a one-way street; for instance, there have been colossal failures because the municipality did not offer an attractive salary to get a highly qualified man, or did not give the right man a free hand to operate independently without interference from politics or "special friends" of council. These points should be remembered: The CM is in a much better position to provide re- ports on civic projects than are departmental heads inasmuch as a civic undertaking frequently affects the operation of more than one department. The CM system enables all the technical respon- sibilities to come under the control of properly 'trained experts, of whom the manager is merely regarded as the best trained and most senior. It eliminates the practice, common today, of entrust- ing certain executive and administrative matters to people whose assured capacities are only their ability to get elected to office, or to secure appointment to a board, commission or authority, The Ontario Chamber of Commerce took a strong stand in favor of the CM system as is reported in "Policy Statements and Resolutions of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce 1960-61"--this was in the form of a resolu- tion ((still before the Cabinet) requesting that the Municipal Act contain adequate provisions enabling municipalities, under proper safeguards, 'opt such system on a uniform basis, as an alternate form of muni- cipal government. The resolution continues: "Therefore be it resolved that the Legislature of On- tario be requested to enact enabling legislation permit- ting the adoption, by municipalities, of the Council- Manager system of government, such legislation to in- clude detailed specification of the responsiblities of the manager to the municipal council, definition of the man- ager's duties and obligations, and outline of the respon- sibilities to the manager of the appointed officials and: "Be it further resolved that the Ontario Chamber of Commerce should continue its program of informing its organizations and the public of various Council-Man- ager forms of government and of encouraging the study of the question." § LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Frank Meagher, chairman of the Oshawa Separate School Board, is on the mend again after a brief con- valescence period in hospital . . . The Ontario Regiment Association is making plans for its 13th annual reunion here (October 20, 21, 22) and members are expected to attend from distant points . . . Nordair Ltd., recently opened a passenger office at Windsor Airport--the move completes passenger service facilities for the airline's new "Seaway Route" between Montreal and Windsor with intermediate stops at Sarnia, London, Toronto and Kingston (Oshawa will be included soon--the Depart- ment of Transport indicates). In the first five weeks 93 percent of departures and 90 percent of arrivals were within 10 minutes of published time. Some 2506 pas- sengers were carried. CONVENTION TIME IS ALWAYS HERE The life an alderman is not all hard work. Take Alderman Albert V. Walker (the hard-working chair- man of the City's property committee), for instance, He returned last week from the five-day convention of the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (with Chief Ray Hobbs) at Kitchener; this week he is attending the three-day convention of The Ontario Municipal Conference in Windsor with Mayor Christine Thomas and the following Council colleagues -- Alderman Brady, Bint and Dafoe . . . Ronald F. Wilson (Oshawa chartered accountant of the firm of Wilson and Bur- rows) is the incoming president of The Oshawa Toast- masters' Club, the group that has developed so many fine young speakers for the local banquet circuit . . , Magistrate Robert B. Dnieper knows more than a little about press coverage--he was a member of the sports department of the Globe and Mail while an undergrad at the University of Toronto . , , Crown-Attorney Bruce Affleck has returned from a holiday trip to Detroit . . . The Fall Assizes of the Supreme Court of Ontario in Ontario County will open in Whitby September 18. ULSTER CHOIR TO APPEAR HERE Special Memo To Music Lovers: The famous Ulster Girls' Choir is coming this way again. The choir will perform in the OCCI Auditorium Wednesday, September 6 at 8 p.m. under the auspices of and to assist the work of St. George's (Anglican) Men's Club--they will render favorite songs and Irish dances and are scheduled to be in Oshawa from 6 p.m. September 5th until 3 p.m. September 7th, The City will fete the Choir at a luncheon when Mayor Christine Thomas is to receive a scroll from the Lady Mayor of Belfast at an official City Hall reception for the Choir.
