About the Melbourne City Council

The Melbourne City Council consists of the Mayor and six Council Members who serve four-year terms.

The City Council is responsible for setting municipal policy, including passage of laws and the annual budget. By majority vote the Council hires a City Manager to conduct the City's daily business and a City Attorney to protect the legal interests and assets of the City of Melbourne.

The Mayor and Council Members are elected by a city-wide vote. Each Council Member represents a district of the city.

City Council Meetings

City Council Meetings are held the second and fourth Tuesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. in the Council Chamber at City Hall, 900 E. Strawbridge Ave., Melbourne, FL 32901.

All meetings are open to the public.

Meetings are video live-streamed, and recordings can be watched online following the meetings. All videos are closed-captioned.
