How much control over the police does a city manager have?

A city manager typically has significant control over the police department, including authority over budget allocation, personnel decisions, and operational policies. However, the extent of this control can vary depending on the city's charter, local laws, and the specific governance structure. In some jurisdictions, police chiefs may have more autonomy, while in others, the city manager may directly oversee police operations.
