The Office of the City Clerk, a time honored and vital part of local government exists throughout the world and is the oldest among public servants and provides the professional link between the citizens, the local governing bodies and agencies of government at other levels and serves as the information center on functions of local government and community. The City Clerk is one of five Council Appointed Officers. The Clerk is charged with the responsibility of keeping a record of all proceedings of the City Council and serves as Custodian of the City Seal. The City Clerk's position is set forth in the City Charter and the duties are described in the City Code.

All records in the Clerk’s Office are open to inspection at any time during regular business hours. All official City documents are maintained in the City Clerk's Office as permanent records and include ordinances and resolutions, contracts, deeds, leases, agreements, City Council minutes, etc. Records dating back to the mid-1800’s are maintained both on and off site. Only information regarding Council's written agendas, agenda reports, and correspondence from July 7, 1986 through the present may be accessed online.
