What is the role of the Mayor in a Council-Manager form of government?

Mayors in council-manager communities are key political and policy leaders, and their specific duties, responsibilities, and authorities depend on the organization’s charter or code. In council-manager communities, typically the mayor is an equal voting member of the city council who presides at council meetings, represents the city in intergovernmental affairs, and facilitates communication and understanding between elected and appointed officials. For Daly City, the mayor is elected among the council members annually in December.
