About the Winchester City Council
The city government of Winchester is divided between the Mayor and the Common Council or sometimes called the "City Council." The common council holds the city legislative authority and makes the laws through ordinances, orders, resolutions and motions. It is the Common Council that has final authority over the city's property, finances, and the appropriation of monies. The Mayor presides at the Council meetings, but may vote only in case of a tie. Most of the council's powers are outlined in the Indiana Codes.
