Hello and thank you for visiting the City Manager's Office. The Office of City Manager is dedicated to providing a variety of services to the public, City Commission and staff. We remain committed to being responsive to serving the needs of our community.

I believe you will come to see and agree with me that the City of South Bay possesses a dynamic business environment while maintaining its friendly and unique small-town character. As your City Manager, I am committed to doing what it takes to foster a favorable economic climate and ensure prompt and courteous service by the city so that our City may continue to grow, flourish and become an integral part of Historic South Bay.

My staff is willing and equipped to help you and your business with any problems or issues that may arise pertaining to the services we offer, from sanitation to permits, licensing and more. In addition, I am always interested in your input.
