Elected Officials
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.
