Overview
Dallas is a Council-Manager form of government. The nine-member City Council appoints a City Manager to be the administrative head of the City and its departments. The City Council holds business meetings twice per month. In addition, the City Council holds workshops, committee meetings and other special assignments as directed by the Mayor and City ordinances.

The City Council also serves as the Agency of the City's two Urban Renewal Districts. More information about urban renewal can be found by clicking here.

The Mayor and City Council members serve without pay and are reimbursed for only part of their actual expenses while representing the City in attendance at in-town and out-of-town functions.
