   A.   The role of the City Council is legislative in character, which includes the power to set policy, approve contracts and agreements not within the authority of the City Manager or his subordinates, and undertake other obligations consistent with the Charter and Code, while deferring to the discretion of management and staff to choose the appropriate means to achieve the Council's goals
   B.   The City Council, as the elected body serving all of the residents of the City, shall perform its duties and exercise its powers in a manner that serves the best interests of the entire City, rather than any particular geographic area or special interest.
