UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5A Gale Garber / KANSAN Bonnie Augustine, the new mayor of Lawrence, switched into John Nalbandian's seat, previous mayor, after being elected mayor at the City Commissioners meeting last night. Augustine is preparing to hand Nalbandian a commemorative plaque for his service this past year as mayor. Wednesday, April 9, 1997 New faces join city commission By Paul Eakins Kansan staff writer Teary farewells, jovial greetings, and a game of musical chairs marked the Lawrence City Commission meeting last night. Two new commissioners and one re-elected incumbent took their seats, and the reassembled commission chose a new mayor. Newly elected city commissioners Erv Hodges and Marty Kennedy took their seats for the first time, as the old commission said farewells to Allen Levine and Jolene "Jo" Andersen, whose terms ended last night. Andersen, with tears in her eyes, said that she had enjoyed her two years on the commission. "This is the best thing that's ever happened to me." Andersen said. Re-elected Commissioner Bob Moody took his usual seat next to Commissioner Bonnie Augustine, but at the end of the evening, Moody found he had a new neighbor. Commissioner John Nalbandian, professor of public administration, ended his one-year term as mayor last night, and swapped seats with Commissioner Bonnie Augustine, who was elected unanimously by the commission as Lawrence's new mayor for the next year. Nalbandian, who will serve two more years as a commissioner, said that he had seen many things accomplished by the commission in the last two years, and that it probably had to make some of the hardest decisions that have confronted the commission in years. A heated issue that the commission had dealt with was growth, Nalbandian said. Nalbandian noted accomplishments of the commission such as the merger of the fire department and the emergency medical staff, the creation of the stormwater util ity fee, the renovation of Union Station, bringing Borders Bookstore to Lawrence and remodeling the public swimming pool. Augustine said she looked forward to serving the community as the mayor. "It's a wonderful opportunity and a wonderful responsibility," Augustine said. "My primary goal, however, is to bring forward the goals of all the commissioners." Augustine said she wanted there to be more coordination between the city, county and school district. She also said that recreation centers and public transportation were two of the major issues that the city would deal with in coming years, and that public forums on both issues would be scheduled in the next month. Erv Hodges said that he was not intimidated by the prospect of the position, but that he just wanted to do a good job. "You have a concern that you want to make the right decision," he said.
