MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT

MUNICIPALITIES Mississippi law classifies municipalities according to population size . Municipalities with populations of more than 2,000 are classified as cities . Places containing between 301 and 2,000 persons are considered towns . Municipalities between 100 and 300 persons are called villages . The State no longer provides for creation of new “hamlet” entities . Municipalities change classification according to the results of each decennial U .S . Census . Mississippi’s most recent municipality is the city of Diamondhead in Hancock County . It was incorporated on January 30, 2012 . Natchez is the State’s oldest municipality and was incorporated on March 10, 1803 . Areas may incorporate to become a city, town, or village by presenting to the Chancery Court a petition signed by two-thirds of the qualified voters who reside in the proposed municipality . The petition must describe the boundaries of the city, designate a name, identify the number of inhabitants, calculate the assessed value of real property within those city limits, state the reasons for incorporation, identify the services to be offered, and provide a list of interim city officials . Once the Chancery Court approves the incorporation application, the Secretary of State then issues a charter for the new city . The charter is the city’s basic law or constitution . The major function of Municipal Government is to provide services for its citizens such as maintaining roads and bridges, providing law and fire protection, and furnishing health and sanitation services . In Mississippi, State law establishes different types of municipal governments, as described in Miss . Code Ann . Title 21 et seq . (1972) . In current practice, municipal government takes three basic forms organizing as either a mayor-council government, a commission government, or a council-manager government . Mayor-council governments – Voters elect a mayor and a city council, usually referred to as the board of aldermen . The number of aldermen varies from five to seven depending on the population of the city . Aldermen are elected from geographic districts called wards . Depending on the powers granted the mayor, mayor-council governments are described as either a weak mayor type or a strong mayor type . The weak mayor-council form is the most widely adopted in Mississippi . Voters elect the mayor and aldermen who together decide whether other officials such as the city clerk or tax collector are elected or appointed . The mayor shares administrative powers with the aldermen including budget preparation . In the strong mayor-council form, the mayor has the power to hire and fire city employees and has a larger role in budget preparation . Under both forms, the mayor presides over council meetings and has veto power over council actions . Commission governments – Voters elect a mayor and at least two commissions . The mayor presides over commission meetings but has no veto power . The mayor is the official representative of the city and administers major municipal departments while individual commissioners head other specific departments . The commissioners are elected from different wards and the mayor is elected at-large . (Jackson changed from a commission to a strong mayor-council form of government in 1985 .) Council-manager governments – Voters elect a mayor and council which, in turn, hire a city manager . The mayor presides over council meetings and represents the city . The council is the policy-making body for the municipality while the managers handles the day-to-day operations including the hiring/firing of city employees, budget preparation, and fiscal management . The city manager attends council meetings but does not have a vote .
