. The general manager may be removed by the board upon the
adoption of a resolution by the affirmative vote of not less than a
majority of the board. Before the general manager may be removed, he
shall, if he demands it, be given a written statement of the reasons
alleged for his removal and he shall have the right to be publicly
heard thereon at a meeting of the board prior to the final vote on
the resolution providing for his removal, but pending and during such
hearing the board may suspend him from office. The board may not
reduce the salary of the general manager below the amount fixed at
the time of his original appointment except upon the adoption of a
resolution by a like vote and after a like opportunity to be heard.
The action of the board in suspending or removing the general manager
or reducing his salary, if approved by a majority of the membership
of the board, is final.
