Members
The City Council is comprised of a mayor and 4 members elected at-large to 4-year terms. Council members served staggered terms.
These elected officials are private citizens from all walks of life. Not only are they residents of our city, but they are also willing public servants who take very seriously their roles as representatives of our community. Take a moment to meet the Mayor and members of our City Council.
