He stated that as far as his situation was concerned, that the Council had taken action at a personnel meeting and that this action should be made public at a regular meeting, regardless of the action taken to replace him. Councilman Stephens stated that he had a motion to make, and wished to preface his motion with the following state- ment,and wished same set forth in full in the minutes: One of the first actions taken under discussion by this City Council after it was reorganized, the first thing was the separation of the office of the City Clerk and Chief Administrative Officer. It was the contention at that time that both jobs, or either job, was all important to the City. One is an elective position; the other is an appointive position. It is my considered opinion that this City sorely needs for a City Administrator a profes- sional City Administrator. This is not to construe or be construed by any member of this Council to take the impression or have the impression that this is any com- plaint whatsoever regarding Mr. Elmer Cook's work as City Removal of Elmer Cook as City Administrative Officer as of Jan. 31, 1958.

Clerk. In that position, in my opinion, he has been highly efficient. However, I do feel and have always felt that, with all respect to Mr. Cook, there are certain professional qualifications lacking as a City Administrator. So, Mr. Mayor, I so move that this Council take under consideration the termination of that office now held by Mr. Elmer Cook as Chief Administrative Officer, effective January 31, 1958, and that the City Council immediately in executive session set up the method by which they will hire a replacement. Now, if there is a second to this motion, I sincerely hope they will second the motion with the consideration that there is no complaint whatsoever, or no disrespect intended whatever, or no disregard whatever for the work Mr. Cook has done for this town. I am fully cognizant of it, and I am sure you are. That's my motion, Mr. Mayor".
