| The December 1905-June 1914 minutebook, below, appears to contain minutes of the joint meetings of the Board of Aldermen and the City Assembly. Collectively, they appear to have been known as the Common Council. In May 1914, the city voters approved a new charter. This charter abolished the Board of Aldermen and the City Assembly and created a single Council. The minutes of this body begin with the June-September 1914 volume. | |||||||||||
