Mayor & Council
The Vital Role of Our Mayor and City Council
In our Third Class City in Kansas, the Mayor and City Council members play a crucial role in shaping the future of our community. As elected officials, they serve without pay, dedicating their time, energy, and expertise to making decisions that impact the daily life of their neighbors and themselves as residents of Whitewater.
The Mayor provides leadership, represents the city in official matters, and works to implement policies that enhance our quality of life. Meanwhile, the City Council - working alongside the Mayor - debates and enacts local ordinances, oversees the city's budget, and ensures essential services run smoothly.
Together, they collaborate to promote responsible governance, economic growth, and community well-being, all while staying responsive to the needs of the people they serve. Their dedication and volunteerism are at the heart of what makes our city a great place to live, work, and grow.
