“As a defendant, it is the duty of the Mayor and Common Council, as well as the Board, to insure that the schools are effectively and completely desegregated ... As the chief executive officer of the City and as the chief fiscal officer, the Mayor has the affirmative obligation of assuring that there are adequate funds available to guarantee that this is possible... He should have affirmatively inquired as to what was necessary, what the program entailed, what were the Board’s needs with regard to those programs mandated by other court orders and by the state and federal regulations ... It is clear from the testimony that the Mayor failed to make any such inquiries.”
