Marble Falls City Council from left to right: Allan Garrett, Sharon Pittard, Dave Rhodes, Richard Lewis, John Packer, Mayor George Russell and David Ives.
The City of Marble Falls
has a Council-Manager form of government consisting of a
Mayor and six Councilmembers who are elected at-large by
the qualified voters of the City. Each member serves
a staggered two-year term. Thus, three of the members
are voted on one year, with the remaining members, including
the Mayor, elected the following year. Term limits
are in place, which means the Mayor and Councilmembers may
serve in their respective seat for a maximum of six years,
or three consecutive terms. Regular City Council elections are held on the second
Saturday in May.
The City Council operates under the
Home Rule City Charter adopted by the citizens of Marble
Falls. The Council is responsible for establishing
city policies, considering city ordinances and resolutions,
establishing the annual budget to provide services to the
public, setting the city tax rate and water and wastewater
rates for Marble Falls, and approving or rejecting zoning
changes.
City Council meetings are regularly
held on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month at 6:00 pm.
The meetings take place in the Council Chambers located
at City Hall, 800 Third Street. Special meetings are
held as needed. Effective October 2010 the City Council regular meeting dates will be moved to the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of each month at 6:00 pm.
