Run off candidates for City Council At Large # 1 Melanie Miles and Julian Ramirez


 

Sixteen Council members, along with the Mayor and City Controller, are elected every four years. Council members are limited to serving two terms of four years each, with each term beginning on January 2. Five Council members are elected at large, or city-wide, while the other eleven are elected to geographic districts of roughly the same proportion of the population.


Houston's City Council At-Large Position One is heating up as well-known attorney and former prosecutor Julian Ramirez faces off against fellow lawyer and community activist Melanie Miles in a race for the seat.
