Book Description
Excerpt from A Model Charter for Texas Cities: Bulletin of the University of Texas, February 10, 1914 The Bureau of Municipal Research and Reference was organized at the University of Texas in June, 1913. Its chief purpose is to aid, so far as may be possible, in the solution of some of the difficult problems that present themselves in the government of cities, especially in Texas. To attain this end the Bureau is proceeding in two ways. In the first place, it is collecting all possible material relating to the government of cities in this country and abroad, which material will be at the disposal of any city that cares to take advantage of it. For this purpose the officials of the Bureau stand ready to answer, so far as they may be able, any inquiries that may be sent to the Bureau by the municipalities of Texas, or of other states. In the second place, the Bureau aims to publish in bulletin form from time to time information on matters of municipal interest which might prove helpful to the cities of the State. At the present time the question of framing or revising city charters is the one with which the cities of more than 5,000 inhabitants are chiefly concerned. It was felt desirable, therefore, that the Bureau should make available in printed form for the cities of this State the latest conclusions of municipal science on the subject of charter making. With this in view, the present bulletin is issued as the first official publication of the Bureau of Municipal Research and Reference. It is planned to have other bulletins follow as rapidly as material can be prepared. The writer desires to acknowledge the aid received from various sources in the difficult task of preparing this charter. He is indebted chiefly for helpful co-operation to his colleague in the school of government, Professor C. S. Potts, who offered valuable criticisms and suggestions concerning the charter. Through the valuable counsel of Mr. J. B. Rector, City Attorney of Austin, the writer was able to avoid some of the legal and constitutional pitfalls into which he might otherwise have strayed. The important but wearisome task of proof-reading was performed by the Secretary of the Bureau, Mr. R. M. Jameson.
