Redding City Council

ng is one of the many California cities operating under the Council-Manager form of government. Under this system, the Council establishes the policies under which the City operates and appoints a trained and experienced City Manager to administer the affairs of the City. City Manager responsibilities include hiring of City staff, preparation of the Annual Budget, administration and coordination of the City's operations, general supervision over all property under the control of the City and enforcement of City ordinance and applicable state laws. The City Manager appoints a staff to assist him in carrying out his duties. City departments include the City Attorney's Office, City Clerk's Office, City Treasurer's Office, Community Services, Development Services, Electric, Finance, Fire, Personnel, Police, Public Works, and Support Services. Like the City Manager, the City Attorney is appointed by the City Council. Both the City Clerk and the City Treasurer are elected by the public.
