A very large rart of tho work of the department will, there fore, consist of meeting with council boards, city planning committees and business and civic organizations in terested in city development: and through these promote more logical procedure in such development by the preparation of general comprene'isive plans. Kearnev is the first city in the state to se'k such extensive service and has already undertaken the prenara- tinii of mans to be used in compiling basic data in formulating a general city plan. Professor M. I. Evinger will have direct charge of the city planning department in addition to his other duties as associate professor of civil engineering in the college of engineer ing.
