City Manager.

which the City Manager attends, the Manager must be heard by such
commissions, boards or committees as to all matters upon which the
City Manager wishes to address the members thereof. The City Manager
must inform the members as to the status of any matter being considered
by the City Council pertaining to that body, and the City Manager
must cooperate to the fullest extent with the members of all the commissions,
boards, or committees appointed by the City Council.
