Get to Know Lakewood City Council

What we do: Lakewood City Council is a one-stop link to your local government. City councilmembers are ambassadors for the city, liaisons to City Hall and experienced problem solvers who can help you navigate questions or concerns about neighborhood issues and city services. City Council also oversees the city’s finances and operations and strives to ensure their alignment with community priorities and best practices in local government.

Who we are: Lakewood City Council comprises seven councilmembers — three who represent the city at-large, and four who represent each of the city’s wards. Councilmembers are elected in non-partisan elections and serve four-year terms. 

Get involved: General meetings of City Council are open to the public and livestreamed. They are held the first and third Monday of every month at 7:30 p.m. in Council Chambers at Lakewood City Hall: 12650 Detroit Ave. Public comment is welcome at all regular meetings.

Committee meetings are held on Monday evenings as needed. Check the city website for updates on committee schedules. Council also accepts written public comment, called eComment, in advance of all public meetings.
