About the Council

Councilmember (7 positions): 4 Year Term

Council President and Vice President: 1 year terms, elected by the Council from within the Council

The City of Lynnwood has a strong Mayor/Council form of government. The seven Councilmembers are elected directly by the people for staggered four-year terms, representing the community at large rather than individual districts or areas of the City.

Among the Council's primary duties are to make laws, adopt regulations and budgets, levy taxes, authorize public improvements, provide for public safety and health, approve board and commission appointments, and oversee a wide-ranging agenda for the citizens.

City Council Members welcome your attendance and participation at their meetings. The agenda provides for citizen comments under the oral communications section. You may also comment during public hearings. All business (except executive sessions) is conducted in public and citizens are welcome to attend and listen. At executive sessions the Council by law may discuss only such items as personnel matters, property acquisition and disposition, and litigation.

Parking and meeting rooms are accessible for persons with disabilities. Contact the City at 425-670-6613 with 24-hour advance notice for special accommodations.

Council Meetings

The Council meets Mondays in Council Chambers, at 7:00 p.m. on the 2nd and 4th Mondays in regular Business Session, and on the 1st and 3rd Mondays and the third Wednesday of the month in Work Session. Business Sessions are televised on Comcast Channel 21 on Wednesdays at 7:30 p.m., and on Sundays at 7:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.
