Each ward is represented by one Council Member. Together with the Mayor, the Council Members form the Tucson City Council. The Tucson City Council helps address concerns that you may have about your neighborhood, your city, and the services provided by your local city government.
Although most mayors are elected directly by the voters, their term length may vary from city to city. In cities like Columbia, S.C., the mayor serves a term of four years, while in Houston, Texas, the mayor only serves a term of two years. Mayors usually must reside in their city for at least one year before filing to run for the office.
