Ashland has a Council-Manager form of government, with much of the City's business evolving through citizen committees that enhance public support and political stability.

The City Council is elected to serve as the governing body for Ashland's 20,960 residents (PSU Population Research Center certified population for 2019). The Mayor, who presides at the Council meetings, is elected at-large for a four-year term. Six Council members are elected at-large for four-year staggered terms.

Council meetings are held on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 6 p.m. in the Council Chambers, 1175 E. Main Street. The Study Sessions are held the day before each regular meeting (typically the first and third Monday) at 5:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers, 1175 E. Main Street.

You can watch the meetings live on Ashland Home Net Channel 9, Charter Spectrum RVTV 180 Prime, or streaming live online by going to rvtv.sou.edu and clicking on the RVTV Prime button.

Meetings are replayed on Ashland Home Net Channel 9, Charter Spectrum RVTV 180 and 181. View video archives on RVTV. For more information, call the Administration at 541.488.6002.
