The "two-year budget cycle" shall mean two consecutive fiscal years for which the council adopts and appropriates a budget for the first of such fiscal years and adopts a spending plan for the second fiscal year. In years where a two-year budget is submitted, the council shall adopt and appropriate a budget for the second fiscal year of such cycle as provided in this chapter; provided, however, the city manager may submit a one-year budget when the manager determines that it is efficient or otherwise beneficial to the city.
