Mayor and City Council

Plano is governed by a Council-Manager form of government where the Council sets City policy and the Manager is responsible for City operations. The City Council consists of the Mayor and seven City Council members, all of whom are elected citywide. Citizen advisory boards and commissions add to the governing process. The mission of the City of Plano is to provide outstanding services and facilities, through cooperative efforts with our citizens, that contribute to the quality of life in our community. The City has approximately 1,949 full time employees and 641 part time employees.

CITY COUNCIL

There are eight Council places (each identified with numbers running one through eight) in the City of Plano which includes the place of Mayor (Place six). All Council Members run and serve at large which means that all Council Members represent the entire City and likewise the entire City may vote for all eight places as they come due regardless of where they may reside in the City.

That aside, there is one distinction. Of the eight Council Places, candidates running and serving in Places one, two, three, and four must reside in the same numbered district. The map identifying the districts can be viewed here . Residing in the first four districts is the only distinction separating Council Members in Places one through four from Places five through eight.

Place One - District One
Place Two - District Two
Place Three - District Three
Place Four - District Four

The City Council meets on the second and fourth Monday of every month for a 5:00PM workshop and at 7:00PM for a regular meeting. Beginning January 12, 2004 the workshop will remain at 5:00PM and the regular City Council meeting will be held at 7:00PM. During the month of July, Council meeting dates are revised.

You may direct your concerns to the Mayor and any Council Member.
