The City Charter, as amended, establishes a mayor-council form of government and <br />grants the City Council full policy-making and legislative authority to the Mayor and four <br />Council Members. The City Council is responsible, among other things, for passing <br />ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees, and hiring a City Administrator. <br />The City Administrator has the responsibility of carrying out the policies and ordinances <br />of the City Council and for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the City. The City <br />Council is elected at-large on a non-partisan basis, with Council Members serving four- <br />year terms and the Mayor serving a two-year term. Elections are held every two years <br />with two council seats and the Mayor being up for election each election cycle. <br />The City provides a full range of municipal services. These services include: general <br />government, public safety (police, fire and building inspections), public works (street and <br />fleet), culture and recreation (parks and recreation), conservation of natural resources <br />(environmental, solid waste abatement, forestry), community development, public <br />improvements, and providing and maintaining water, sewer, and storm water <br />infrastructure. <br />The City of Lino Lakes Comprehensive Plan is available here and provides detailed <br />information regarding the City’s projected plans through 2040. <br /> <br />About the Lino Lakes Public Safety Department <br /> <br />The Lino Lakes Public Safety Department provides emergency management, fire, and <br />police services to the Lino Lakes community.
