The Monroe City Council members can be compared to a Board of Directors. They answer to the electorate the same as a Board of Directors answers to its stockholders. The Council members act as the policy makers, as required by council/manager form of government set forth in the Oregon Revised Statutes. The Council members provide the City Administrator, the Chief Executive Officer, with policy-making guidelines and performance objectives. The City Manager’s staff turns these guidelines and objectives into programs and services. The Council members meet at least once each month to review and determine major policy decisions. The decisions they make directly affect City improvements and the quality of life for Monroe citizens. The Council members pride themselves on being accessible to Monroe residents. At each regular Council meeting, citizens are given the opportunity to express their views to the Council. Since Council members are elected city-wide, each member represents all Monroe citizens. |
