Mentor City Council

Welcome to the Mentor City Council, your local government office dedicated to serving the community of Mentor, Ohio. Located at 8500 Civic Center Boulevard, the City of Mentor has been proudly operating under its own Charter since January 1962 with a Council-Manager form of government. This system ensures that a seven-member council, elected by the community on a non-partisan basis, effectively represents the residents. The council comprises three At-Large Members and four members representing each of the city's four Wards.

Every two years, the council selects one of its members to serve as the President of Council, guiding the council's efforts in hiring a City Manager who oversees and directs all municipal operations. The Mentor City Council is committed to transparency and public engagement, with meetings held on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM in the Council Chambers on the third floor of the Mentor Municipal Center. These meetings are open to the public and broadcast live on the Mentor Channel, Spectrum 1024, U-Verse 99, and our app available for ROKU, Apple, and Android devices. For those unable to attend live, meetings are rebroadcast throughout the week and archived for on-demand viewing.

Our current council leadership includes the President of Council from Ward 1, whose term ends on December 31, 2027, and the Vice-President of Council from Ward 4, also serving until December 31, 2027. We also have dedicated At-Large members, ensuring comprehensive representation for all Mentor residents.
