The City Council consists of 10 City Councilors and one Mayor, who chairs the meetings. The Mayor is elected at-large and two of the 10 City Councilors represent one neighborhood ward within the City. Thus, each resident of Roswell is represented by the Mayor and by two City Councilors. The Mayor and City Council serve staggered 4-year terms.
