Niagara Falls City Council
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Niagara Falls City Council is the governing body of the city of Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. The council consists of the mayor plus eight elected councillors representing the city as a whole. The last election was held in 2022, and the next will be held in 2026.
Members of city council were originally known as aldermen until 2006, when the terminology was updated to councillor. These councillors were elected through a ward system from 1970 to 2000, which meant that councillors represented local neighbourhoods within the city, as opposed to the city as a whole. However, in 2002, that was changed, so that the top 8 candidates were elected. At the same time, city council voted to reduce the size of the council from 13 to 9 (including the city councillors as well as the mayor).[1]
