The City of Vienna is governed by a Board of Mayor and City Council vested with the legislative authority of the City government to set the strategic vision and guidance for City operations. The Board sets policy through the annual appropriation process and by passing ordinances and resolutions.
The City Council is comprised of six (6) Council members who are elected according to Wards (the City of Vienna is divided into three (3) Wards). The Council members are elected to serve four-year terms. The Mayor is elected to a four-year term by the City at-large and serves as the chief executive officers of the municipality.
The City Council sets policy through the annual appropriation process and by passing ordinances and resolutions.
The City of Vienna City Council holds its regular meetings on the first and third Wednesday of each month. The Council meets at 6:30 p.m. at City Hall located at 205 North 4th Street.
The Clerk's office sets the agenda for the City Council meeting by 4:00 p.m. on the Monday before the Council meeting. In accordance with 5 ILCS 120/2.02(a)(b), the agenda and packets* will be posted in City Hall and on the website by 4:00 p.m. on the Monday prior to the Council Meeting.
The Council, at all regular meetings, is free to consider any matter that may legally come before it, but may not act on a matter which is not on its agenda.
There is a public comment period at every Council meeting and the public is welcome to attend all meetings.
* Agenda packets will be as complete as possible prior to each Council meeting, however, late agenda items may not be available until the Council meeting. These items will be readily available to the public at the Council meeting.
