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.
Senator Charlie Shields, R-St. Joseph, is the
Senate President Pro-Tem. To hear his opening remarks for the
2010 session, visit his web site here.
