City Council and Governance
The city council would be made up of:
- A mayor, elected by a majority of all city voters
- The mayor will have a vote on the council and may serve up to two consecutive terms
- Four Council members will be elected at-large by majority from four districts as drawn by the State Reapportionment Office according to the 2020 census
- Initially, two Council members and the Mayor would be elected for five year terms, and two Council members would be elected for three year terms, so as to stagger the terms
- After the initial election terms, all Council members will be elected to four year terms
- Council members must reside in their districts and the Mayor must reside in the City
- Council members may serve up to two consecutive terms
