City of Champaign

If you're visiting town for a Big Ten sporting event, a convention, or out for an evening of culture, you'll find Champaign a community rich in activities. While we're proud to be home to the University of Illinois, which sits on the line between Champaign and Urbana, we are also home to Parkland College, the local Unit 4 public school system, and a variety of private primary and secondary schools. Champaign is home to an award-winning system of neighborhood parks, and together with our Twin Sister City of Urbana and our surrounding County, also home to many museums, galleries, theatres, and other diversions. The City of Champaign operates under the Council-Manager form of government. The City's legislative authority is vested in a nine-member Council consisting of the Mayor, three members elected from the City at-large, and five members elected from districts. Each member serves a four-year term. The City Manager serves as the City Executive, supervising nine department heads that direct the administrative functions of the City.
