City Council

The Evans City Council is made up of seven members, with a Mayor elected at large and two council members representing each of three wards. Council elections are held in November of every even-numbered year and are nonpartisan. Evans operates under the Council-Manager form of government and follows a Home Rule Charter which was first adopted in 1973. Under the Charter, the City Council appoints a City Manager, City Attorney, and Municipal Judge as well as members of all advisory boards and commissions. The City’s mission is to deliver sustainable, citizen-driven services for the health, safety, and welfare of the community.

The Evans City Council meets on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 7:00 p.m. Work sessions often precede council meetings and begin between 5:00 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. depending upon council business. The meeting schedule for the current calendar year is listed below.
