Decatur City Council will meet at 5:30 p.m. Monday, Jan. 30.
The City of Decatur operates under the Council-Manager form of government, a system which combines the leadership of a representative, elected council with the professional background of an appointed manager. In this system the Mayor and Council hold the ultimate decision-making power and are responsible for hiring a professionally trained manager to direct the city’s day-to-day operations.
The Decatur City Council is made up of an elected team of six city council members and a mayor and is charged with setting the vision and direction for the City of Decatur. The Council serves as the city’s legislative body, establishing policy, approving budgets, determining the annual tax levy and implementing the rules which guide daily life in our community.
