Who We Are

The Sioux Falls City Council consists of the Mayor and eight members. Three of the Council members are elected "at-large" and five are elected from Council districts. The Council members act as a part-time policy making and legislative body, avoiding management and administrative issues. Each of them are elected to a four-year term and can serve no more than two terms consecutively.

The City Council meets regularly on the first three Tuesday evenings of every month at 7 p.m. in the Carnegie Town Hall, 235 West Tenth Street.
