\u201cI am honored by the Council\u2019s appointment and grateful for the opportunity to continue serving the Fullerton community in this capacity,\u201d said Mr. Manfro. \u201cOver the past several months, as Interim City Manager, I\u2019ve had the privilege of working closely with our City Council and dedicated staff to maintain momentum on key priorities. I look forward to continuing that work and partnering with our residents, businesses, and employees to build on Fullerton\u2019s strong foundation.\u201d<\/p>\n
