IX Chairman's Report
A. Joint Venture, City /Borough Engineer. The Chairman reviewed staff functions
as related to the office of Borough Engineer. It was brought out that despite
occasions where possibilities of conflict of interests existed under present
arrangement, the present contractor (Jim Barr & Associates) had performed
for the Borote,h on a highly ethical level.
For reasons of expediency and in the interest of economy, the Chairman expressed
opinion that a combined office of Borough and City engineer would further
streamline City /Borough working relations along with the offices of building
official and sanitarian.

an arrangement.
Upon motion of Assembly concurrence by Mrs. Hajdu, seconded by Mr. Brechan
and carried by voice vote, the Chairman was directed to pursue and complete
these arrangements.
