This presentation discusses one of the most important changes in municipal administration — the rise of the City Manager/Chief Administrative Officer. It looks at the development of the position, as well as its strengths and some of the shoals that need to be navigated to ensure that the position continues to fulfill its important role.

As this practice increases, it is important to have a better understanding of the benefits and consequences of service sharing in Canadian communities.
