  • Lawrason Act January 2014
    The Lawrason Act January 2014 "THE LAWRASON ACT" Prepared for the Louisiana Municipal Association by Jerry J. Guillot INTRODUCTION Louisiana municipalities are governed by the Lawrason Act (hereinafter referred to as "Act") except those municipalities governed by a special legislative charter or a home rule charter or plan of government. (R.S. 33:321) Prior to 1882, each municipality was incorporated by special legislative act which also set forth the municipal charter. In 1882, Act 49 was enacted, setting up a general method whereby any municipality might be incorporated. However this law allowed the body of a new municipality to draw up its municipal charter. Thus, between 1882 and 1898, each municipality enjoyed the right to draw up its own charter. In 1898, the Act was enacted. It set forth a general legislative charter for all municipalities created after its effective date, as well as for those created prior to its effective date which chose to accept its provisions. The intent of this law was to provide a uniform type of government for all municipalities in Louisiana. This fundamental municipal incorporation law currently governs some 248 villages, towns, and cities. The law is named after Judge Samuel McCutcheon Lawrason, a West Feliciana Parish lawyer born in 1852 in New Orleans. Educated in France, Spain, and West Virginia, he received his doctor of laws degree from the University of Louisiana in 1874 and opened his law practice that same year in New Orleans. He married and moved the following year to West Feliciana Parish, where he was elected parish judge. He later became a school board member, a member of the Louisiana State University's Board of Supervisors, a state senator (from 1896 to 1900 and again in 1920 to 1924), and vice president of the Louisiana Constitutional Convention of 1898.

  • Honorary Aldermen
    Agenda Item No. 5 Governance Committee 22 January 2018 Part I Honorary Aldermen Report by Director of Law and Assurance Electoral Division: N/A Executive Summary The County Council is able to appoint former members with eminent service as honorary aldermen of West Sussex. The Chairman has asked for the matter to be considered. The report sets out possible criteria and other considerations for the Governance Committee to discuss. Recommendation That the Governance Committee determines whether to recommend to the County Council that an honorary alderman scheme should be adopted. Proposal 1. Background and Context 1.1 Section 249 of the Local Government Act 1972 sets out a power for councils to appoint former members as honorary aldermen in recognition of eminent service as a councillor. The County Council has never used this power, but research has now been undertaken at the Chairman’s request. Research has found that about half of the County Councils in England appoint honorary aldermen, including Hampshire and Kent in the South East. 1.2 The Governance Committee is asked to consider whether an Honorary Alderman scheme should be established in West Sussex County Council. To be appointed, a member must have retired as a member of the County Council and have ceased to be politically active. 1.3 The Act leaves it for councils to define ‘eminent service’. From a check of other councils’ criteria, where published, it seems that most work on a system of either a certain minimum length of service, or holding certain senior positions, or a mixture of both. The number of aldermen can be capped (one council gives 12 as the maximum number at one time) but many others do not cap, with up to around 30 Aldermen.

  • Honorary Freemen of the Borough of Guildford
    Honorary Freemen of the Borough of Guildford Introduction In past centuries, admission to the Freedom of a Borough conferred upon the recipient possession of recognisable privileges. In order to carry out certain trades or professions in a particular Borough, one had to be enrolled as a freeman and admission to the freedom was frequently necessary in order to have a vote in parliamentary elections. To become a freeman of Guildford, one had to be: (a) apprenticed to a freeman of the Borough for at least seven years, or (b) the eldest son of a freeman, or (c) by admission into the “Corporation”. Records kept in the Guildford Muniment Room contain the names of 1,061 persons admitted to the freedom of the Borough between 1655 and 1933 and also record the production of indentures of apprenticeship between 1655 and 1903. Typical entries in the two volumes of Borough Records known as the Freemen’s Books are reproduced below: 39. BARRETT, John, of Ockley. Appr. by ind. 7 Nov. 1796 to Jos.

  • Appendix a Review of Council Constitution
    APPENDIX A REVIEW OF COUNCIL CONSTITUTION (Report by the Head of Legal and Democratic Services) 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Under the Local Government Act 2000, local authorities were required to adopt written constitutions to regulate their systems of governance and proceedings. Since then the Council has continued to review its Constitution regularly and at biennial intervals since 2005. The purpose of the review exercise is to identify changes required to the Constitution to reflect new legislation and working practices which have emerged during the preceding two years, to overcome any inconsistencies which may have arisen and to make positive adjustments to reflect changes in circumstances. 1.2 The terms of reference of the Corporate Governance Panel includes responsibility for “oversight of the Council’s Constitutional arrangements and advising the Council on any changes that may be desirable”. This report, therefore, introduces the review commissioned during the current year. 1.3 Adopting the same approach as previously, Members have been requested to consider the content of the Constitution and to highlight any issues or areas which could be improved, clarified or revised based on practical experience over the past two years. In particular, Heads of Service have been requested to examine Part 3 – Responsibility for Functions: Scheme of Delegations and given proposed changes to the senior management structure, re-assign delegations appropriately. 1.4 To identify the changes proposed, Members will need to refer to the Constitution available electronically on both the Council’s website and intranet. A copy also is available to peruse in the Members’ Room. 2.

  • Guidance for Election As an Alderman and Guidance on Progression to the Offices of Sheriff and Lord Mayor
    Guidance for election as an Alderman and Guidance on Progression to the Offices of Sheriff and Lord Mayor This document aims to provide practical guidance to those considering standing for election as an Alderman* of the City of London, as well as guidance for those elected on the steps involved in progressing to the role of both Sheriff and Lord Mayor. The role of an Alderman The role of an Alderman in the City of London is one of the oldest elected roles in the UK. Each of the twenty‐five Wards in the City elects one Alderman for a term of up to six years, although you can seek re‐election up to the age of 70. The 25 Aldermen form the Court of Aldermen1, one of the three governing Courts of the City of London. While the precise nature of the Office continues to evolve, its aims remain consistent, that is to encourage trade, champion standards, build skills in the workforce and promote the City as an attractive place to live and do business. An Alderman will also sit on the Court of Common Council2 which is responsible for the overall policies and resources of the City of London Corporation, and sets the Corporation’s multi‐year strategy and plans. Part of the role of an Alderman is to champion one or more elements of the Corporation’s strategy and participate on one or more operating committees. A more detailed job description of the role and the duties undertaken can be found at Appendix 1. The Court of Aldermen One of the responsibilities of the Court is to elect the Lord Mayor each year.

He was involved in the young government's affairs as a member of the Provincial Assembly of Pennsylvania, treasurer of the Philadelphia Committee of Safety, and the first treasurer of the new United States of America. He married Henriette Boude (1731-1792) and with her had ten children.
