The chairman of the commission shall be elected from and by the
commission members for a term of one calendar year. The commission

officer appointed or elected by the commission, may be removed at
any time by a majority of votes of the duly appointed members of
the commission.

the activities of public and private groups involving the affairs
of persons 60 years of age or older to the end that there shall
be adequate community and individual activities stimulating and
maintaining the interests of senior citizens; adequate public and
private services maintaining and improving the health and welfare
of senior citizens; and adequate dissemination of information concerning
the interests, problems and affairs of senior citizens. It shall
also be the purpose of the senior citizens commission to advise
the council as to how senior citizens could assist and promote good
works in the community.
The senior citizens commission shall operate under such budget,
if any, as may from time to time be established by the annual appropriation
ordinance of the city, but any expenditures there from, including
employee salaries, shall be made only upon approval of the mayor
