Local Elected Official Terms of Office

Current understanding

Michigan’s Home Rule City Act (1909 PA 278, MCL 78.1–78.28) governs, among other things, the terms of office for locally elected officials in home-rule cities. SB 0241 of 2025 proposes adding a new section 24e to modify these term-of-office rules, and is tie-barred to HB 4358, HB 4359, and SB 0240, indicating a coordinated package affecting local election timing or official tenure.
