Composition of Town Board
The Town of Manlius Town Board is composed of the Town Supervisor and six Town Councilors. These are all elected,
part-time positions. Normally, local elections are held each odd-numbered year in November at the General Election.
The Supervisor serves a two-year term and the Councilors serve a four-year term. Three Councilor positions are up
for election every two years.
Meetings
Town Board meetings are held the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month at 7:00 PM at the Town Hall, 301 Brooklea Drive,

A majority of the Board members must be present in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and
the vote of each Board member upon every question is recorded in the official minutes of the meetings. An affirmative
vote of a majority of all members of the Board is required for the adoption of any action, motion, or legislation.
The meetings are open to the public and include a "privilege of the floor" segment, at which time the public is invited
to speak on any topic.
Prior to Town Board meeting, the agenda is available at Town Hall. Shortly after Town Board meetings, minutes of the
proceedings are available from the Town Clerk.
