Mayor Christman also called Council's attention to the fact that there is now a vacancy on the Board of Zoning Appeals, since George Schaaf was filling an unexpired term ending December 31, 1964, and now as an appointee to the Chariter Review Commission cannot serve on the Board of Zoning Appeals, since members of the Charter Review Commission cannot hold any elected or appointive position with the City. The Mayor slso asked Council to consider legislation authorizing the City to pay a reward for information about people who throw debris in the ditches. Signs stating a reward would be paid for such information might help alleviate the problem. ..
