Meet Our Town Council
Arcadia is governed by a five-member Town Council with each member serving a four-year term. The Town Council serves as the legislative and policy making body of the Town. They enact all laws and direct such action as required to provide for the general welfare of the community, translating the attitude and ideas of the citizens into municipal action to the end that desired levels of service are provided as efficiently and effectively as possible.
The Town Council establishes policy; adopts all Ordinances and Resolutions of the Town; reviews and adopts the annual operating budget; and maintains communications with citizens and other government agencies.
The Town Council meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. in the Councils Chambers located at Arcadia City Hall, and minutes of all Council meetings that have taken place are available for public review in the Town Clerks office and are published in the Bienville Democrat newspaper.
