Government
City Council
Pursuant to the Highland Park Charter, Chapters 5
and 6, the City Council of Highland Park is
comprised of 5 members each elected to a four-year
term. The council exercises all of the legislative
powers of the city, except as otherwise stated by
law, and provides for the public’s peace and health,
and for the safety of persons and property.
Meetings
The council meets in regular session in the
established Council Chamber on the 1st and 3rd
Monday of each month. The Highland Park City Clerk
provides an agenda of business to be considered at
each regular Council meeting, and except, when this
rule is waived by the affirmative vote of three
members of council, no item of business may be
placed on the agenda unless notice thereof was filed
in the office of the Clerk by noon on the third
working day proceeding each Friday before the
regular meeting. A quorum is reached when there are
at least 3 council members to transact the business
of the city. In the absence of a full quorum, the
meeting can be adjourned until such time as a quorum
has been reached.
