Local Elections Matter Most
It is a common myth that important elections only take place every 2 or 4 years. Local elections often take place every year, and because turnout is lower, your vote can actually make even more of a difference.  To explain the positions open for election we are using the descriptions  from the city ordinances. We hope they will help you better understand why your vote in local elections matter most. 

The Mayor

The mayor shall serve as the ceremonial head of the city government, preside at all meetings of the council and provide the leadership necessary to ensure good government. He or she shall work closely with the council to obtain legislation in the public interest and with the city manager to ensure that the same is enforced, and participate in the discussion and vote on all legislative and other matters coming before the council. The mayor shall have signatory authority for all legal contracts and commitments of the city; sign all ordinances and resolutions; recommend appointees for the boards and commissions; work and coordinate with the city manager and the council; submit his or her recommended budget to the council; review and make recommendations on all proposed budget amendments; approve agendas for council meetings; and, in time of declared emergency, may take command of the police and govern the city by proclamation, maintain order and enforce all laws. The mayor shall have such additional powers as are granted to the office by this charter, state law, or ordinance.

City Council

The city council shall be the legislative and governing body of the city and shall have control of all the city finances, property, functions, services, affairs and programs subject only to the terms and provisions of this charter. The council shall have the power to ordain, alter, amend or repeal and enforce ordinances, resolutions, rules, orders, and regulations, for any public purpose, that are not in conflict with this charter, or the federal or state constitutions and laws. The council shall have the power and authority to provide for any public purpose, including but not limited to recreation, the regulation and control of public property, municipal finances, the preservation of the public peace and good order, the security and protection of the public health, safety and welfare, the promotion of trade, commerce and economic development, the beautification and quality of life within the city, and any other service or program provided by any city within the State of Texas. The city, by and through its city council, shall have full and complete power of local self government to the fullest extent not in conflict with this charter and state law, including all such authorities and privileges that are now or hereafter provided to cities by state law, that are provided to any other Texas home rule city by its charter, and such power and authority both express and implied as necessary to accomplish and enforce any such duty, program or public purpose.
