The Mayor and City Councilors serve four-year terms of office. The Mayor and City Councilors all serve the citizens of our community in a volunteer capacity.

You may contact the Mayor or any City Council member by calling the contact number above, or you may reach them directly by accessing each individual Council member's contact information listed below.

The City Charter provides for a Council/Manager form of city government. The Council is the policy-making body of the city. They adopt laws and regulations, annual goals and objectives and budgets that fund a wide range of public services. Council members give direction to city staff through the City Manager who serves at the pleasure of the city council. The mayor is the leader of the governing body and presides over the council meetings.

Citizen volunteers play a large role in city government, staffing and overseeing key advisory commissions and committees. Involvement is encouraged and there are many volunteer opportunities available.
