City Leadership
As your City Commission, we are elected to serve you, the citizens of Tallahassee. We appreciate this important responsibility granted to us and take pride in efforts to enhance the quality of life enjoyed by residents, who we are privileged to call neighbors and friends. It is our hope that you will connect with us on issues that you feel important and share your ideas for making Tallahassee an even more vibrant Capital City. By having an open dialogue and working together, we can ensure that Tallahassee continues to thrive.
An All-America City
Presented by the National Civic League, this coveted award is presented annually to just 10 communities from across the country that exemplify inclusive civic engagement, outstanding innovation and meaningful collaboration to create a strong community. The honor was announced June 29, at the 2025 All-America City Conference in Denver.
Adding to its wins from 1999 and 2015, Tallahassee joined an elite group of only a few cities nationwide – out of more than 19,500 – to receive this prestigious honor three times, reinforcing the continued collective efforts that make it a model for cities across the nation.

Vision
A creative capital city that supports a strong community
