[Adopted as Article 125 of the Codified Ordinances]
A City Solicitor shall be appointed by the Mayor,
by and with the advice and consent of the Council, who shall serve
for a term of four years, concurrent with that of the Mayor. He shall
be removable from office at the discretion of the Mayor upon written
notice of intention to the Council, as provided for heads of departments.
Before entering into office, the City Solicitor
shall give bond to the City, as required by law, in the sum of $5,000.
The City Solicitor shall deposit with the City
Controller for safekeeping all assurances of title, contracts, bonds,
deeds, leases, mortgages and other evidences of debt belonging to
the City, which are not immediately necessary for the City Solicitor's
use.
One or more Assistant City Solicitors, having
the same qualifications as those required by law for the City Solicitor,
may be elected by the Council for a term of four years; provided,
nevertheless, that upon the occurrence of any vacancy in the office
of City Solicitor prior to the expiration of the City Solicitor's
term, the term of the Assistant City Solicitors shall end immediately
upon the qualification to office of the City Solicitor elected to
fill such vacancy. Before entering into office, each Assistant City
Solicitor shall give bond to the City in the sum of $1,000 to secure
the faithful performance of his duties.
The City Solicitor is hereby authorized to appoint
a Clerk to the City Solicitor, whose compensation shall be fixed by
the Council. Before entering into office, the Clerk to the City Solicitor
shall give bond in the sum of $1,000 to secure the faithful performance
of her duties.
