That position was reiterated by the Mayor and Council on March 6, 2008. We are officially forwarding the following budget recommendation in an effort to show continued leadership in this time of fiscal constraint. We find that this is a prudent and responsible way to address the fiscal challenge and our need to maintain services for our community. By Section 304 of the Chula Vista City Charter, the Mayor is the only full-time elected official of the City and is required to "perform the functions and have all the powers of a duly elected Councilmember. In addition to said powers and duties, the Mayor shall have the power and duty:" To report to the City Council on the affairs of the City, to be the official head of the City for ceremonial purposes, to preside, with consent of Council, over times of emergency, to assume the primary, but not exclusive responsibility, to inform the people of any major change in policy, to represent the City in regional agencies which require an elected City official, to supervisee the operation of the Mayor and Council Office and to exercise the full-time function as Mayor for the City during usual business hours. Section 305 of the City Charter prohibits the Mayor or Councilmembers "directly or. indirectly, by suggestion or otherwise," from any "attempt to unduly influence the City Manager or other officer appointed or confirmed by the Council in their performance of their duties." The City Councilmembers are elected, part-time officials of the City of Chula Vista and are also assume a comprehensive role in serving the residents of Chula Vista. Each vote of Mayor and Council member are weighed equally, when considering policy for the City of Chula Vista. Considering the current fiscal challenge, while striving to be prudent and responsible with taxpayer dollars, we respectfully propose to adjust the FY200B/2009 Mayor's Office Budget to be two times the FY200B/2009 Budget of one City Council Office. $1,800,000.00 $1,600,000.00 $1,400,000.00 $1,200,000.00 $1,000,000.00 $800,000.00 $600,000.00 $400,000.00 $200,000.00 $0.00 . .
