Metro Council

A Metro Council is a governing body responsible for making decisions and setting policies for a metropolitan area or city region. It consists of elected officials who represent various districts within the area. The council oversees local services such as transportation, parks, public safety, and budgeting. By working collaboratively, the Metro Council ensures that the needs and priorities of its community are addressed through legislation, budgets, and programs. Essentially, it functions as the local government’s legislative arm, shaping the direction and development of the metropolitan area it serves.
