Cedar Park residents will head to the polls May 2 to vote on multiple City Council seats, along with a slate of proposed charter amendments that could shape how the city government operates.
Overview
Seats up for election on the Cedar Park City Council include mayor, Place 2, Place 4 and Place 6.
Voters in Cedar Park will also consider 15 proposed amendments to the city’s charter. The propositions vary from language clarifications and state law alignment to changes in leadership structure and public participation.
Terms to know
A home rule charter establishes city government structure, powers and procedures. Unlike ordinances, which City Council can adopt or amend, charter changes require voter approval. Cedar Park’s charter was adopted in 1987 and has been amended five times, most recently in 2021, according to city staff.
