Elections
Elections for the City Commission are held every other year. In each election, three seats are vacant on the City Commission. The two candidates acquiring the most votes receive four-year terms, while the candidate obtaining the third most votes secures a two-year term.
The City Commission annually elects the mayor and president of the board at the first meeting in April. The
mayor, who has the same authority as the other commissioners, presides over the commission meetings, provides the official signature on documents, represents the city at official and ceremonial functions and presents the annual state of the city address. In the absence of the mayor, the president of the board fulfills the duties of the mayor.
Board Responsibilities
The City Commission passes ordinances and resolutions, establishes policies for the city, approves the annual budget, appoints members of city boards and commissions, and appoints the
city manager. The
city clerk is responsible for preparing the agenda and maintaining the minutes of the City Commission meetings.
