OMA and OCCMA Joint Workshop: Whose Job Is It Anyway? A City Hall Compatibility Game

Get ready for a lively, interactive workshop where mayors and city managers team up to test their knowledge—and maybe learn something new—about each other's roles. Inspired by the classic Newlywed Game, this session pairs municipal leaders in a friendly competition to answer questions like: Who handles this? Is it the mayor’s call or the manager’s responsibility?

Each round brings laughs, learning, and lively discussion as pairs reveal their answers, compare notes, and spark conversation at their tables about how responsibilities are shared (or not!) across cities. With music, game cards, and an energetic MC to keep things moving, this workshop is designed to break the ice, build understanding, and bring clarity to the complex relationship between elected officials and appointed administrators.
