Are you thinking about filing for a City Council position?

Port Angeles was incorporated as a City on June 10, 1890 and became a noncharter code City on November 24, 1971. Port Angeles operates under a City Manager/Council form of government with the City Manager being appointed by the City Council.

There are seven members serving on the Council elected for four-year terms. Each member is selected by position and does not represent any particular district or area of the City. In the general election, voters cast their vote for all Council positions on the ballot. The Mayor and Deputy Mayor are elected by the Council members every two years at the first meeting in January.

There will be four positions up for election in 2009.

The City Manager is the chief administrative officer of the City and is responsible to the City Council for proper administration of all affairs of the City. He attends all meetings of the City Council and recommends for adoption by the City Council such measures as he may deem necessary or expedient. He sees that all laws, ordinances and policies of the City Council are faithfully executed. He keeps the public and Council informed on City operations.
