Title
FCCMA/ICMA Council-Manager Recognition - 45 Years
Summary:
The Town of Belleair is being recognized by the Florida City and County Management Association (FCCMA) and the International City/County Management Association (ICMA) for 45 years (1981-2026) under the council-manager form of government.
The council-manager form of government is the most widely adopted structure of local government in the United States. Under this model, the Town Council establishes policy direction for the community, and a professionally appointed Town Manager is responsible for carrying out that policy, overseeing daily operations, and ensuring efficient and ethical administration of municipal services.
FCCMA and ICMA recognize milestone anniversaries to honor communities that have demonstrated a sustained commitment to professional local government management, ethical governance, and effective public service.
Assistant County Administrator and FCCMA District VII Director Matthew L. Spoor will present the Town Commission with a certificate commemorating this milestone achievement.End
