The Columbus City Council is the lawmaking body of Columbus, Ohio. It has 7 members who are elected at-large.[2] It meets in the City Council Chambers located on the second floor of Columbus City Hall. Starting in the 2023 election, City Council will expand to 9 members and be elected by district in a primary election and then at large in the November general election. In the 2023 election, all members will run for another term. Four members will only serve a two-year term while the other five will serve a four-year term.[3] Although the city is divided into nine districts, voters within Columbus vote for all nine council members.
