The Plano City Council is the governing body of the City of Plano, Texas, United States. The council operates using the council-manager government. They hold regular meetings at the Plano Municipal Center on the second and fourth Monday of every month at 7 p.m. During the month of July, the meeting dates are revised.[1]
The Plano City Council is composed of eight members from four administrative districts. Each Councilmember serves a four-year term, extended from three years by the passing of a charter amendment in 2012.[2] All Councilmembers, including the mayor, serve staggered four-year terms, and are limited to two consecutive terms. Plano City Council elections are held in odd-numbered years, with Places 2, 4, 6, and 8 beginning in 2013, and Places 1, 3, 5, and 7 beginning in 2015. A person who has served two consecutive terms as a city council member, is not eligible to stand for election to city council again until one year has passed. All Councilmembers are elected by popular vote of the entire city of Plano using the Two-Round system. If no candidate receives a majority of the vote in the first round, the top two candidates compete in a separate runoff election.[3] Plano City Council races are officially nonpartisan.[4] Those running for Places 1 through 4 must reside in the district that corresponds to that place number. Places 5 through 8 do not have residency restrictions. Place 6 is always the mayor.[5][1]
