The City’s Administrative unit brings together the departments and functions that provide overall policy direction, organizational leadership, legal guidance, financial management, legislative administration, and internal support to City operations. The Administrative unit includes the City Council, City Manager’s Office, City Attorney, Finance, and Human Resources. These functions are grouped together because they collectively provide the governance, oversight, and support necessary for the City to effectively deliver services to the community. While each area has distinct responsibilities, they share a common role in supporting the organization as a whole rather than providing services through a single operating program. The City Council establishes policy and provides legislative direction for the organization, while the City Manager’s Office is responsible for implementing Council priorities and overseeing the City’s day-to-day operations. The City Clerk Division within the City Manager’s Office supports the City’s legislative process, records management, elections, and public access to official City records. The City Attorney provides legal counsel and representation to the City Council and City departments. Finance provides the financial stewardship necessary to support City operations, including budgeting, accounting, revenue management, purchasing, utility billing, and other financial services. Human Resources supports the City’s workforce through recruitment, employee and labor relations, benefits administration, classification and compensation, training, and organizational development. Together, these departments and divisions provide the administrative framework that supports sound decision-making, fiscal accountability, legal compliance, workforce management, and the efficient operation of City government. Additional information on the responsibilities, staffing, expenditures, and programs of each component of the Administrative unit is provided in the sections that follow.
