City Council – About Us

The Huntsville City Council is the legislative branch of the Huntsville city government as defined by the Mayor-Council Act of the State of Alabama. It is made up of five members, representing five distinct geographic districts of Huntsville, Alabama. All official actions must be approved by a majority vote of the Council during its regular meeting on the second and fourth Thursdays of the month.

The Huntsville City Council is assigned to 10 Committees and Boards, with one or two Council Members on each committee. Council members represent the Council on six of the boards and committees and are assigned by the President of the Council. Each committee is responsible for hearing items that fall under its jurisdiction and then making recommendations to the Council as a whole.

COUNCIL MEETINGS

City Council meetings are broadcast at 5:30 P.M. on the second and fourth Thursday of each month, with an adjusted holiday schedule in November and December.
