HAYWARD, Calif., July 22, 2024— The City of Hayward has formally opened its recruitment of a new City Manager and is inviting community input on attributes community members would like to see in the City’s next chief executive officer.
Under the Hayward City Charter, the City Manager is hired by and reports to the City’s seven-member City Council and is responsible for overall administration of Hayward’s municipal government including selection and oversight of chiefs and directors of all departments of Hayward City government.
