About Borough Council

Under the Home Rule Charter, there is a seven-member Council, elected at large, for four-year, overlapping terms. Council sets policy and has ultimate responsibility for the municipal government. Members of Council work on a part-time basis, without compensation. Members of Council receive regular training and are actively involved in multiple professional organizations.  

Meetings

Regular Council meetings are typically held on the first and third Mondays of each month at 7 p.m in Room 304 of the State College Municipal Building located at 243 South Allen Street. Please see the calendar for schedule modifications.
