1967 Vote 171 lo Elect Legislature By WALTER CARROLL With a vote of 54,013 to 42,731, city and county residents last night approved abolish' ment of the 38-man County Board of Supervisors and replacement of it with a 24- member County Legislature. The residents of the city voted 21,970 to 14,434 for reapportionment. Residents of the towns voted 32,043 28,279 for the plan. Under the old system there was a'supervisor for each of the 19 towns and 19 wards. Under the new system there will be 14 less supervisors and some towns, particularly the smaller ones, will share a representative with towns or portions of other towns.

The same situation will prevail in the wards. The 24 county legislators will be elected in November, 1967. As a resul 'of the vote, the city and county each will be divided into '12 legislative districts. Reapportionment of Onondaga. County- was ordered by Supreme Court Justice J.

Robert Lynch. At a special meeting in August, the full board approved the use weighted voting until the establishment of a County Legislature. Under weighted voting, the 19 wards of the city have 190 votes and the towns have 188. In the. past three months this has necessi- tated the use of an adding machine at board meetings.

Weighted voting is based on the 1960 census and represents approximately one vote for each 1,000 residents. A board subcommittee of four Republicans and one Democrat worked for six months on the reapportionment plan. There are questions to be answered i the County Legislature: It'is not known how much the legislators will be paid, nor have the lengths of their terms been decided. Neither has it been decided whether those elected as town supervisors may also be eligible for election as legislators from the districts of which their town are a part. The towns will continue to have their own supervisors but they will serve, as town officers, the business of the towns.

Reapportionment of Onondaga County has been the source of considerable controversy. Those in favor of the present plan have hailed it as fair and progressive. Those against have cried gerrymandering. If the plan had not been approved, the courts might have reapportioned the county or returned the problem to the Board of Supervisors for another solution. One of the purposes of the plan is to make the county voice more effective in dealing with state and federal agencies.
