2 The Choices What to do? Existing: The Mayor shall be in charge of the day to day administrative affairs of the City. With Charter Amendment: City manager is appointed by and responsible to the council for proper administration of the affairs of the city.
3 Primer: City Government Purpose: All local govts. are creatures of the state City govts. are general purpose Texas cities have more broad authority than school districts, counties, or special districts Home Rule Cities (351 in Texas)

6 Mayoral Responsibilities in Both Forms of Government 1) Presides 2) Key city representative 3) Appoints boards and committees with Council advice and consent 4) Head of city govt. for ceremonial purposes and for purposes of military law. 5) Facilitates communications on council
7 Council s Responsibilities in Mayor-Council Form Elected representatives Policymakers Approves budget and tax rate Adopts ordinances Establishes goals
8 Positives with Mayor-Council Citizens can directly hold an elected official responsible for administrative/operational functions More mayoral power in that strong mayor form can expedite govt. action Mayor who possesses administrative and leadership skills may excel
9 Issues with Mayor-Council Lack of continuity at leadership levels Lack of professionalism Lack of balance of power (especially in strong mayor) Greater potential for partisan politics More power can be a problem in itself Mayor who lacks ADMINSTRATIVE AND LEADERSHIP skills can hurt city
10 2. Council-Manager Form Similar to a board of directors and CEO in private enterprise Policy Administration Reform Movement Voters Mayor and City Council City Manager City Staff

17 Positives with Council Mgr. Form Increases professionalism Increases continuity Balance of power Allows Council to focus on big picture items and major policy Keeps partisan politics out of city operations
18 Issues with Council-Mgr. form Manager isn t directly answerable to the citizens Council can no longer give directions to the city staff Manager controls the information and may not keep Council informed. Manager is too expensive
19 Summary Two forms of local govt. in Texas Council-manager is the most common in home rule cities Council-manager has been used since 1913
20 Bottom Line Citizens want a well-run city with trash collected, stray dogs picked up, low crime, potholes fixed, and fiscal responsibility. How to best achieve a well-run city ultimately depends on the form of government and on the people in the form of government. Your decision = What form gives the highest probability of success?
