Answer 1

19. I don't know in Ga

all others correct.

On 20, reading the Columbus Consolidated Mayors duties, I agree with your answer. But in Ga, I don't know if Columbus charter is common. Consult your text.

Answer 2

I don't know about Georgia, either, but GENERALLY around the country, the council manager form allots almost no power to the mayor at all, except as a voting member of the City Council and chair. The mayor may have political power, but no statutory power that other Council members don't have.

Answer 3

Thank you both!
