The City of St. Joseph is dedicated to providing efficient
quality services by working in partnership with individuals,
neighborhoods, and businesses to enhance the quality of life and
to create a healthy, vibrant community in which to live, work,
and visit.
The partnership that exists between the government, the business
community and private citizens was recognized by the National
Civic League when they designated St. Joseph a 1997 All-America
City. The City of St. Joseph has a council-manager form of
government. The City Manager runs the day-to-day operation of
the city and oversees all city departments. The Mayor and eight
other members of the City Council make laws and vote on policy
and budget matters. Members of the Council are elected for four
year terms and serve on a part-time basis.
The three-member Buchanan County commission is the
administrative arm of county government. Commissioners meet
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings to approve spending
orders for the county government. They are responsible for the
budget, and the maintenance and upkeep of county properties and
facilities. The state legislature is in session from January
through May in Jefferson City.
