Papers, 1991-1995.

Papers documenting the two mayoral terms (1991-95) of Richard Vinroot as the mayor of Charlotte, N.C. The papers highlight the city council, the chamber of commerce, community development, consolidation of city and county government and services, crime (including drug enforcement and the police department), cultural relations (especially Charlotte's interaction with its "sister cities"), education, housing, municipal services (including compensation of city employees, reorganization of departments, and privatization of services), and sports (especially professional teams and facilities). The collection contains no records documenting Vinroot's city council tenure, his campaigns for North Carolina governor (1996, 2000), or his professional career as an attorney.
