John B. Anderson served on the Board of Trustees, the City of Davis's first form of city government, from 4/20/1917 to 11/20/1917. Anderson served as President of the Board, akin to the mayor, in 1917. He also helped found the Bank of Davis, which was located at the corner of 2nd and G Streets in downtown Davis. While the site has not housed a bank since 1971, the two-story Anderson Bank Building, named for John Anderson, remains in its original site.
