The Mesa City Council believes that its people, not leaders, are what makes a City great and actively works to encourage citizen participation in the decision-making process. Whether it is through neighborhood meetings, advisory boards and committees, telephone calls and letters, or email, the Mesa City Council sets policies based on the input and needs of its citizens. 
Mesa operates under a charter form of government with citizens electing a mayor and six councilmembers to set policy for the City.

Here's just two of the action items on the Consent Agenda
ITEM *4-j 17-0294
Total contract award = $169,646.09
Purchase to Upgrade Computer Disk-Based Storage for the Police Department as requested by the Information Technology Department (Citywide)
Based on the growth of electronic information needs within the Police Department, both from new project initiatives, as well as, normal annual data storage increases from operations, there is an immediate need to expand computer disk-based storage capacity.  Stop-gap measures have been implemented to control growth, but additional capacity is now needed to ensure recoverability of critical data.
The Information Technology and Police Departments, and Purchasing recommend authorizing the purchase using State of Arizona cooperative contracts and the lowest-quoted vendors, Transource Services Corp, at $83,893.32 and Custom Storage (cStor), at $1,859.55; for a combined total of $85,752.87.
