"Regarding Council action on the Auditor and Purchasing
Agent change, it would seem that Section 30, Ordinance
No. 1056, controls the question whether the office of
City Auditor and PUrchasing Agent can be withdrawn or
not. This Section states that no department shall be
withdrawn without the vote of the elwotors. Under the
same Section it would seem that the City Council could
add an additional auditing department and under-Rule 5
of the Rules and Regulations of the Civil Service
Commission providing for the compensation plan and
increase by resolution of the City Council, it would
seem that the City 0ouncil has the right to make a
special salary adjustment evan without the approval of
the Chief Examiner.. As these m~tters seem to be
exclusively municipal affairs, I believe the ordinance
and the rules under the ordinance are controlling."

The Chairman asked for discussion on appointment of Administrative
Officer. The Clerk read opinion of ~arJorie Mize, Assistant
City Attorney, relative to appointment of such officer. On
motion of T~ustee Chandler, seconded by Ch~ney and carried,
opinion was ordered spread on the Minutes and filedZ
"My opinion concerning the validity of the proposed city
Ordinance creating the position of administrative officer is
that it would be unconstitutional and void for the following
reasons~
The City of Santa Aha is organized under the Municipal
Co~poration Bill applying to cities of the fifth class, which
is Act 5233 of the General Laws of the State of California.
That Act provides that the government of the City shall be
vested in c~rtain enumerated offices in Section 751 of said
Act, and provides for the term of office and the election of
said officers. Section 7520 specifically provides that the
office of City Manager may be created upon an ordinance sub-
mitred to the people for their vote, and said Section sets out
the duties of said office in detail and that said office
shall not be .abolished without'the vote~Of the people. In
Section 674 of this Act the City Council is given the power to
pass ordinances not in conflict with the Constitution and laws
of this State. The proposed ordinance in question appears to
be directly in conflict with the general laws of this State in
the above referred to Act. In the first place, the
specifies only eertain enumerated offices and does not provide
any place that other officers may be appointed by the City
Council except that it provides that the City Council may
appoint a Poun~m~eter, a Street Superintendent and a City
Engineer. Secondly, the Act provides in detail for the office
of 0ity Manager only by vote of the people, and the proposed
ordinance in question seems to be an attempt to appoint a City
Manager without the vote of the people.
The Constitutio~, Article 11, Section 5, provides that the
Legislature, by general and uniform laws, shall provide for the
election or appointment of County and Municipal officers. When
the Constitution declares an office tO be elective, it can not
be filled'in any'other mode. There are Supreme Court oases on
this point, for example, holding that ordinances creating the
office of License Tax Collector and County Physician were void
because cf want of power to create such offices.
I would be glad to discuss this with you."
Clerk read opinion of City Attorney in regard to appointment of
Administrative Officer. On motion of Trustee Reed, seconded by
Cheney and carried, City Attorneyls opinion Nc. 73 was ordered
spread on the Minutes and filed:
"Youhave asked my opinion as to whether or not the
City Council can, by Ordinance, create the position of
Administ~ative Officer 'with duties substantially as out-
lined in a document handed me, which might be called a
rough draft of an ordinance for such purposes.
The 0ffioers of Fifth Class Cities are enumerated in
Section 751, Act 5233, General Laws. Section ?52 enumerates
certain other Officers which the Board of Tx-ustees may appoint.
In addition to these Officers, the ~uncil clearly has the
power to create positions for and employ other sub-ordinates
and employees, for the City.
Section 752c provides a method, other than by ~dopting a
charter, for the creation of the office of City Manager and
enumerates the power which such Officer shall have. The
language as to powers is mandatory. This requires a vote of
the electors of the City to enact.
It would then appear clear that since the method for the
creation of City Manager is provided by the State, the Council
could not create the office without following the provisions
of the statute. I believe the method set forth in said Section
together with the charter provisions in the Constitution are
exclusive. However, you informed me that it is not the intent
of the City Council to vest any power in the Office of
Administrative Officer. You stated that he would have no
authority, and would likely be an assistant to the Council, who
could m~e recommendations to them.
Since you have the authority 2o create and fill positions
for subordinates and employees, it is my opinion that you could
create a position and obtain an employee to fill same.
A reading of the proposed Ordinance indicates the employee
would be required to attend meetings, ~o assist the Council in
coordinating Government functions, to cooperate with community
organizations, make recommendations to the Council, to study
the work of City Government, to exercise tact, patience and
courtesy and to open the mail for the City Council~ These items
could be delegated to your present Secretary or any other City
employee.
Therefore, it is my opinion that, a new employee could be
authorized for such purposes.
If you desire to vest the job with any authority, I would
suggest that a City Officer could be given additional functions
and would probably have more .authority. Since you could hire
such an employee without Ordinance, you clearly have the power
to do so by Ordinance. Noble vs Cleland ? C.U. 362, 100 Pac.255.
Clerk read opinion No. 74 from City Attorney. On motion of
T~ustee Cheney, seconded by Chandler and carried, opinion No. 74
was received and filed.
On motion of Trustee Reed, seconded by Martin and carried, Mayor
was instructed to work with the City Attorney and report back to
