City Council

The City Council is responsible for setting city policy. They conduct business by voting on ordinances, resolutions, setting the city budget, reviewing land uses, and making decisions about the growth and development of the community. The Council legislates by passing ordinances which become city laws. City laws are codified into a code book, which you can view here.

Council meetings are held the first Monday of each month at 6:30 p.m.,and the third Monday of each month at 6:00 p.m. or immediately following the Economic Development Authority meeting, whichever is later.  

Council agendas and packets are available prior to the meetings.
