Duties

The Roswell City Council sets policy for the operations of the City. This legislative body also sets the millage rate for property taxes, approves the City's annual budget, passes ordinances, and hears and acts on requests for rezoning and annexation.

City Council Elections & Liaison Assignments

Roswell's City Council is elected by the residents of Roswell to provide the vision and policy necessary to meet the needs of our citizens and community.

Each Council Member is elected to one of six posts and serves at large, which means they represent the whole City and not just one district. Each January, the Council chooses a new Mayor Pro Tem from among the Council Members, who assumes all duties and powers of the Mayor during the Mayor's absence or disability. Each Council Member is assigned to be a liaison with a particular City department; liaison assignments are subject to change every year.
