Government

     In Spartanburg, city and county governments are integral parts of our dynamic forward-thinking community, and elected officials are eager to accept the challenges of helping this area achieve excellence.

     Spartanburg County is governed by a seven-member council with six single member districts and a chairman, elected at large. The council determines policies and direction while an appointed County Administrator directs day-to-day activities. The County is focused on maximizing the opportunities available to Spartanburg County citizens and businesses. Current priorities include enhancing quality-of-life amenities such as improved parks and recreation facilities, planning for efficient transportation and other necessary infrastructure and maintaining policies designed to help our local economy thrive.

     The City of Spartanburg is the county’s largest municipality and often works hand-in-hand with the county on various projects. The City has operated under the Council/Manager form of government since 1946. There is a mayor and six council members who serve four-year staggered terms. The mayor is elected at large and the council members represent single member districts. Council appoints the City Manager, who runs the day-to-day operations of the City.
