Offices on the ballot: City Councilor and Mayor

Our City Councilor is our representative at city level, and is responsible for:

 

  • making laws

  • levying taxes
  • distributing funds for City-County operations
  • recognizing individuals and groups for their contributions to their communities
  • serving on boards and commissions

District Changes – Right now, West Indy is in District 16. But in 2022, City Council district maps were redrawn, and new district boundaries take effect in 2024. West Indy will be split down Belmont so that our neighborhood will have two City Councilors representing us in 2024. West Indy City Council Districts will be District 17 (west of Belmont) and District 18 (east of Belmont). Make sure you know who is on your ballot.
