CULLEN, Commissioner.

For many years, the office of chief of police of Georgetown, a fourth-class city, was an elective office. On January 2, 1969, the city council adopted an ordinance making the office an appointive one, effective at the end of the current term of the office on the first Monday in January of 1970. Under KRS 95.720 the city council had the authority to take such action. See Cawood v. Hensley, Ky., 247 S.W.2d 27
