City of Riverdale Mayor and Council Business Session - Special Called Meeting

City Hall Complex, Council Chambers, 7200 Church Street, Riverdale 30274 (Directions)

Incorporated in 1908, the City Charter established a Council/Manager form of government, in which the Mayor and Council are vested with the legislative power of the city and the City Manager is responsible for executive duties and administration of the city.

The Mayor and four city council members are elected at large on a nonpartisan basis, although no two council members can be from the same ward of the city’s four wards. The Council appoints a City Manager, City Attorney and City Clerk who are directly responsible to the Council. All city department heads, including the Police Chief and the Fire Chief, are hired by the City Manager.
