The council may remove the city manager at its pleasure upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the members elected to council, provided that at least three days before any meeting at which the removal of the city manager is voted upon, written notice of the purpose of the meeting shall either be sent by certified mail to the councilmembers at their last known address or hand delivered. Upon the removal of the city manager, the council shall cause to be paid forthwith any unpaid balance of the salary for the current month and the salary for the next calendar month following removal. The action of the council in removing the city manager shall be final, it being the intention to vest all authority and fix all responsibility for such removal on the council. (Ord.
