Sac City, Iowa - Attempting to get elected to city government presents unique challenges for citizens who are willing to step up and try. It is your singular opportunity to cross the line from discussing what you perceive to be wrong with city government to actually being the person who WILL, (at least try,) to fix what you think is wrong with city government.
This year in Sac City, Iowa four council seats and the mayor’s seat is up for grabs. The Sac City council meets on the second and fourth Mondays of the month at 6:30PM. In addition, council members may be assigned to the Kid’s World Board, the Sac Community Center Board, the Fire Department Board, the Planning and Zoning Board, the Sac Library Board, The Sac Arts Council, the Sac County Solid Waste Agency Commission, the Sac Municipal Airport Commission, and the 911 Board. Additionally they may be assigned to any number of existing or yet to be created sub-committees including, but not limited to the finance committee and the labor negotiations committee.
In order to run for the council or to be mayor, eligible citizens must meet all of the same requirements required to vote and live within the city limits of Sac City.
