Hot Springs has a city manager form of government. The seven-member Board of Directors is the community's supreme legislative and executive body. It sets policy, approves budget, and adopts ordinances and resolutions. It also appoints a city manager to implement policy, hire and supervise staff, manage all city departments and funds, and run the city's day-to-day operations.
City Districts & Mayor
The city is divided into six districts, each represented by a city director elected to a four-year term. The mayor, elected at-large, represents the city in official functions, presides over board meetings, and acts as liaison to governmental agencies and civic groups.
