Commentary: The powers of the mayor’s office have eroded, piece by incremental piece — cuts to the powers of appointment for police chiefs, the advent of an elected school board and, this week, changes to the way inspectors general are nominated.
As mayor, Daley and Emanuel were required to rely on the Police Board for nominees, but each found a way to pick his favorites anyway.
For the first time, voters are selecting the people who nominate the members of the commission, who in turn are responsible for choosing a slate of candidates from which the mayor then picks a superintendent. While recent moves to check the mayor’s powers are clear, it’s how Johnson manages his way through them that will matter most in the end. And early signs are that Johnson may be up to the task of handling the thrust-and-parry of power politics, especially between him and the City Council.
