Title
Recognizing Belleair for 40 Years of ICMA Recognition
Summary:
Matthew Spoor, City Manager of the City of Safety Harbor and District 7 board member of the Florida City and County Manager Association, will be here to celebrate the Town’s 40 years of being an ICMA recognized community using the council-manager form of government.
ICMA's origins lie in the council-manager form of local government, which combines the strong political leadership of elected officials (in the form of a council, board, or other governing body) with the strong professional experience of an appointed local government manager or administrator. Under this form, power is concentrated in the elected council, which hires a professional administrator to implement its policies.
These highly trained, experienced individuals serve at the pleasure of the elected governing body and have responsibility for preparing the budget, directing day-to-day operations, hiring and firing personnel, and serving as the council's chief policy advisor.
