City Manager Duties Dominate

First Charter Revision Meeting

bbbbbbb
Oneonta Mayor Gary Herzig’s ad hoc committee on charter revision met for the first time this evening, spending much of the two hours identifying areas for future discussion.  Inevitably, perhaps, much of the talk had to do with the role of city manager, after two have been hired and forced out in the three years since 75 percent of the electorate approved the document in 2011.   The meeting was chaired by former mayor John Nader, right, now SUNY Delhi provost.  He was joined by, clockwise from Nader, Common Council members Maureen Hennessy and Russ Southard, former mayor David W. Brenner, and incoming Council member Melissa Nicosia.   Absent was Council member Chip Holmes.  Herzig said he intends to name a seventh member, but has not yet done so.  (Ian Austin/AllOTSEGO.com)
