administration of all Departments, from exercising the power granted to and imposed upon him/her in
the City Charter to fix, adjust, raise, or lower salaries, and to create, abolish, fill or hold vacant,
temporary or permanent positions whenever it has been determined by the City Manager to be in the
best interest of efficient and economical administration of the City and all its Departments. The
authority contained in this Section shall also be applicable whenever the City Manager shall cause a
Department to reorganize itself to perform its services more efficiently; such reorganization may
