What is a borough manager?

A Borough Manager is a professional administrator appointed by a borough council to oversee the daily operations of a borough's government. Their responsibilities often include implementing council policies, managing municipal staff, preparing the annual budget, and ensuring the efficient delivery of public services. The role is similar to that of a city manager but specifically serves boroughs, which are a type of municipal entity found in some U.S. states. Borough Managers act as a liaison between elected officials and municipal departments, helping ensure that the community's needs are met efficiently and effectively.
