CITY OF OMRO GOVERNMENT

​This web page has been prepared to help citizens of the City of Omro understand the basic policies and procedures for running our city government.  It is intended to be used for reference purposes only.  This section of our site is based on state and federal legislation, general local government reference works, other detailed municipal manuals and similar publications dealing with municipal governments that have been published by the League of Wisconsin Municipalities.  Please click on a blue button to see the details each section.

Government Structure
​The municipality of the City of Omro is organized as a 4th Class City under Chapter 62 of the Wisconsin State Statutes, which provides for the Mayoral / Council form of government.  Under this organization, City government has a legislative branch, belonging exclusively to the City Council, an executive (or administrative) branch, under the direction of a City Administrator-Treasurer, who is hired by the City Council, and a judicial branch administered under the direction of the Municipal Court Judge.

Council Meeting Guidelines
The City Council meets on the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 7:00 PM.  If needed, workshops are held at 6:00 PM, prior to the council meeting, for more in depth discussion.  
Committees, Boards and Commissions
The City Council has established a number of committees, commissions and boards to review city programs, projects and community issues.  These groups provide greater community participation and can be a valuable source of information as they make recommendations to the City Council on specific areas.  These bodies are all organized either through city ordinance or state statutes, which also prescribe their duties and authority.  Unless provided for under state statutes, all meetings are open to the public.
