Council-Manager System

This form of government works similarly to a company or corporation that is listed on the stock exchange. In this system a governing body is organized that in most cases we know under the name of "municipal council". Legislative functions are assigned to a person named as the "manager". His role is similar to that of a company director and is expected to manage the board of directors. It is also common for another person to be assigned the role of "mayor", especially in a symbolic manner and if compared to the operation of a company, he would serve as a non-executive president.

Commission System

In this system of government people choose by vote different persons (commissioners) to work in a specific group or board of government. Each one of these elected persons assumes a responsibility according to the needs. A commissioner can be appointed as "president" or "mayor" and his role is to lead the meetings. This group or commission has legislative and executive functions.

Answer from: jdkrisdaimcc11

Keep it simple:

Both systems try to make government more efficient.

Both systems have an elected group that makes laws for the city.

Both systems have a weak mayor.

Only the council-manager system uses a professional city manager.

Only the commission system has commissioners that specialize in one aspect of city government
