For City Exec.

WILDWOOD Mayor Guy F. Muziani told the city's Charter Study Commission Jan. 6 he believes the city would benefit from the establishment of a mayorcouncil fdrm of government with a city administrator. And while speaking before the study group, he also remarked that the mayorcOuncil form offers a better representation for local citizens, and that the mayor should be elected by the people rather than by other elected officials Muziani noted that under state law the commissioners have the final word in the operation of their various departments. A c[ty administrator under such a system would end up with the responsibility of overseeing all city operations, but having Ao ultimate authority to see things are done properly, he said.

Residency Law CAPE MAY - Under an ordinance adopted by the City Council here last ^ week local residents will be given preference when it comes to receiving municipal Jobs and > job promotions. Established as required by state Civil Service, the ordinance says city residents get first preference in hiring, followed by county residertts, residents of Cumberland and Atlantic counties and than those from the rest of the state. In promotion, when all other criteria are equal, residents are to receive first consideration. A clause exists, that permits the residency requirement to be waived if the position being filled requires special skills and talents that are unlikely to be found among local residents. Police and firemen don’t care under the ordinance although it won't affect any of the 32 nonresidenta already working for the city, any new non resident employees hired will have to move into the municipality within one year

Opining that youngsters will listen to poor* more than to adults and other authority figures, Thomas stressed that ’‘it 1 club I has to be run by kids to work." He added there will be "plenty of parents and kids involved'' * Thomas described the project as a means of reducing vandalism that occurs because kids don't have a place to go "WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING for kids to do," he said "As long as it's I club I run right, it^wlll be successful," the businessman added, saying the establishment would have control inside and outside "At least the police will know where the kids are," he added. Although he wouldn't elaborate on details (oncoming the corporation, Mr Thomas indicated the investors are considerirlg several properties within the township that could effectively house such an establishment He said that a proposal of this magnitude wouldn't be economically feasible for the township to consider, requiring it to be operated by a private corporation Such a club couldn't open for less than $150,000. he said ALTHOUGH THEY SUPPORTED the proposal, members of the Advisory Board emphasized their backing of the concept shouldn't he viewed as their idea of a com

Another hoard member. Betty Babore of Cold Spring, strongly suiyxirted the club idea, saying that giving youngsters somewhere to go and something to do does keep them off the streets and out of trouble. \ MS. RAHORK EXPLAINED THAT the Big Wheels Bicycle Club- formed some 20 years ago in West Cape May for problem youngsters between the age* of 8 and 15-kept even some of the most problem youngsters in the community out of trouble "I worked with the club for 12 years, and durirtg that time not one of those kids ever got in trouble," she said Mayor Clydesdale also agreed that something is needed in the community for teenagers, although he reminded the board that a similar teenage nightclub project had been tried a few years ago in the township and didn't work "There's no question that we have to have a place for kids to go."
