The City of Fountain is a statutory, plan A, fourth class city of Minnesota with a weak mayor-council. Therefore, it is governed by four council members and a mayor. The mayor and the council members have the same role, except the mayor presides over the meetings. No council member as an individual can make decisions for the City. Council members have 4 year terms and the mayor has a two year term. Every even year an election occurs for which the mayor is up for re-election and two council members are up for re-election. Those that are elected take their position on the Council at the beginning of the next odd year. If interested in applying for a council seat, please contact the City Office for information.
The Fountain City Council meets on the first Wednesday of each month, 7:30 p.m., at the Fountain Fire Hall in the City Office. The public is invited to attend council meetings.
