COMMON COUNCIL

The Common Council of the City of Prairie du Chien has the management and control of the city property, finances, highways, navigable waters, and the public service, and has power to act for the government and good order of the city, for its commercial benefit, and for the health, safety, and welfare of the public, and may carry out its powers by license, regulation, suppression, borrowing of money, tax levy, appropriation, fine, imprisonment, confiscation, and other necessary or convenient means.

Council Meetings, Agendas and Minutes

The Common Council normally meets the first and third Tuesdays of each month. If the regularly-scheduled meeting of the Council falls on an election day, the meeting must be moved to the following week, according to City Ordinance.  The Council meetings begin at 7:00 PM and are held in the Council Chambers at City Hall. The meetings are also televised on Channel 6. Please feel free to read the interesting article published by the League of Municipalities on the "Basics" for being an effective council member.
