• Primary – August 6, 2024
• General – November 5, 2024

• One (1) Mayoral seat (The current Mayor is not eligible to run.)
• Three (3) City Council seats

At the primary election, any candidate who shall receive a majority of all the votes cast at such election shall be declared elected to the office for which he or she is a candidate, and no further election shall be held.

City Ordinance No. 3059 – Adopted the Methodology below for calculating the majority of all votes cast:

• Calculate the total number of actual votes cast for all candidates for an office whose names were lawfully on the ballot for that office.
• Divide the sum reached above by the number of seats to be filled for that office.
• Divide the number reached (pursuant to paragraph 2) by two and rounding that number to the highest whole number.

If at any primary election there be any office or offices to which no candidate therefor was elected, then, said election shall be considered to be a primary election for the nomination of candidates for such office or offices, and a second or general election shall be held to vote for candidates to fill such office or offices. 

The candidates, not elected at such first election, equal in number to twice the number to be elected to any given office, or less if so there be, and who received the highest number of votes for the respective offices at such first election, shall be the only candidates at such second election.

At 7:00 p.m. at the first regular meeting during the month next following the General election, which will be December 2, 2024.
