Anderson, Editor MUN ICIPAL TECHNICAL ADVI SORY SERVICE DIVISION OF UNIVERSITY EXTENSION THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE In cooperat ion with the TENNESSEE MUNICIPAL LEAGUE August 1969 FOREWORD This 1969-70 Directory of Tennessee Municipal Officials is the 25th issue of the directory series. It has been compiled, for the most part, from question naires sent to all cities. Every effort has been made to make the information for each city complete and correct, but for 4 cities that did not return the questionnaires it was necessary to rely upon latest information available in our files. To all city recorders and other officials who have contributed information we are deeply grateful. Without the willing and prompt cooperation of these officials, publication of the directory would have been difficult, if not impossible. Comments and suggestions as to how future issues of the directory can be further improved will be appreciated. They may be sent to either of the following: Herbert J, Bingham Victor C.

Next is a letter showing in which grand division of the state the city is located, East, Middle, or West. The figure following this letter is the population (see second paragraph, this page). Next is the fiscal year ending; for example, "F. Yr. 5/ 311 1 means the fiscal year ends May 31 . There follows the date of the next election; for example, 11Elec. 5/7011 means the next election will be in May 1970. The last entry on this line is the area code and telephone num• ber of the city hall or office. On the second line is shown the time and place of the meetings of the governing body and the zip code. On the third line is shown any closing of city offices (other than the usual Saturday afternoon and Sunday). This information was not obtainable for some cities. ' . .. ' Population data are presented on the following two pages; on one in alpha betical order and on the other in descending order according to population. These population figures are as of July 1, 1969, as used by the State of Tennessee for distributing state-shared taxes. The next page lists cities by counties under the three grand division of the state. Municipal elections in Tennessee are held throughout the year, and changes are therefore constantly occurring. Changes are announced each month in Tennessee Town & City magazine, the official magazine of the Tennessee Municipal League. The magazine is sent free to municipal officials; others desiring to subscribe may do so by remitting the yearly subscription price of $3.00 to the League office, A key to the abbreviations used for position titles is given below: Acct Accountant Eng City Engineer Admr City Administrator FC Fire Chief Ald Alderman FM Fire Marshal Atty City Attorney HACh Housing Authority Chairman Aud Auditor HI Housing Inspector Bl Building Inspector HO ff Health Officer CAO Chief Administrative Officer Jg City Judge CD Civil Defense Director Lib Librarian CE Corrunissioner of Education Mar City Marshal CF Commissioner of Fire Mgr City Manager CFin Corrunissioner of Finance MgrA Assistant City Manager CH Commissioner of Health PA Purchasing Agent CP Commissioner of Police PBCh Power Board Chairman CPW Commissioner of Public Works PC Ch Planning Commission Chairman Clk City Clerk Pl Plumbing Inspector Codnr Coordinator RBCh Recreation Board Chairman Comm Commissioner RD Recreation Director Coun Councilman ScS City School Superintendent CoP Ch_ief of Police Sec Secretary CR City Recorder SG Superintendent of Gas System DFin Director of Finance SP Superintendent of Parks DH Director of Housing Authority SS Superintendent of Streets DP Director of Parks SSP Superintendent of Sewage Plant DPers Director of Personnel SU Superintendent of Utilities DPS Director of Public Safety sww Superintendent of Water Works DPW Director of Public Works TA Tax Assessor DPZ Director of Planning & Zoning Tr Treasurer DWelf Director of Welfare UBCh Utilities Board Chairman EI Electrical Inspector V·May Vice Mayor !Mgr Electric System Manager WBCh Water Board
