The city administrator shall act as the agent for the council in the discharge of its administrative functions, but shall not exercise any policymaking or legislative functions whatsoever nor attempt to commit or bind the council, or any member thereof, to any action, plan or program requiring official council action. It is not intended by this chapter to grant any authority to, or impose any duty upon, the city administrator which is vested in or imposed by general law or valid city ordinances in any other city commission, board, department, officer or employee.
