The City Manager's Office has the primary responsibility for coordinating the activities of all city departments, translating council policy into action programs, and providing timely public information.

The city manager implements city council's policies as well as the daily administration and management of all city departments. The strength of Ranson's government lies in the political leadership of the city council combined with the strong managerial expertise of a professional city manager.

The administrative staff includes the city manager, director of planning and zoning, director of public works, director of finance and city clerk/HR representative. Among the department's responsibilities are:

• Processing mail and correspondence for city council
• Establishing the council meeting and study session agendas
• Media relations and public information
• City website
• Wastewater issues
• Evaluation and review of all city department directors
• Major public improvement and infrastructure projects
• Personnel grievances
• Partnership with Ranson Parks and Recreation Commission and Ranson Convention and Visitors Bureau management of the city's park and recreation facilities
• Development of the annual proposed budget
• Coordination with other governmental agencies
• Special events
• Emergency preparedness

I hope that you find the information on the City's website helpful. Please do not hesitate to contact me or my staff if you have any questions.

P. David Mills, City Manager
