Overview
The City of Wyoming has operated under the Council-Manager form of government since 1949. Under this system, the Mayor and Council, selected by non-partisan vote, are the policy-makers. A professional City Manager, appointed by City Council, supervises the implementation of their policies. Wyoming’s governing body is composed of a Mayor and six Council Members, elected at large in odd-numbered years for two-year terms. Candidates for these offices must be qualified electors of the City of Wyoming. The Mayor and Council do not have their offices at the Municipal Building but work at private jobs or businesses, meeting monthly to enact the laws and formulate the policies of the City of Wyoming.
