The City
of Loveland is a home-rule, council-manager form of government. The City
Council is a nine member policy-making board for the City of Loveland.
The Council is led by the Mayor, who is elected for a two-year term by the
community at large.
The Mayor
has the same voting rights as all other council members and is responsible
for presiding over council meetings. This position is recognized as the
City government leader for all ceremonial purposes. The council elects,
by majority vote, a Mayor Pro Tem to serve the same term as the Mayor.
The Mayor Pro Tem is expected to perform responsibilities of the Mayor
when the he or she is absent or unable to perform their duties.
Two
council members are elected from each ward to serve four year terms.
There are four wards in the City of Loveland. The council member
representing the ward must have lived in the ward for 12 consecutive
months immediately preceding the election. A ward map is available on the
right side of this page to illustrate the boundaries of each ward and
identify the council member that represents your neighborhood.
The City
Charter does not impose term limits on the Mayor or any of the council
members to preserve the right of the citizens to vote for the candidates
of their choice.
The Mayor
and council members give a significant amount of time to serve the
community. They are paid a small monthly salary that is established by
ordinance; and they are reimbursed for the actual and necessary expenses
incurred in the performance of the duties of their office.
The City
Council serves a critical role in the development of policy that provides
the basis for decision-making. Decisions made impact the community for
years into the future. This form of representative government is intended
to ensure that the community leaders build a sustainable community that
protects the health, safety and welfare of Loveland residents.
Loveland
believes that the interests of the citizens now and in the future are
founded in providing leadership in the community and in the Northern
Colorado region. The public and private partnerships forged by the Mayor
and the Council will help to ensure that the superior quality of life
citizens enjoy today will be available for generations to come.
