The Town of Indian River Shores holds elections every odd-numbered year to elect two or three of the five-member Town Council.  This election is held on the second Tuesday in March in the Town's Community Center. 

Anyone interested in becoming an Indian River Shores council member must have been a resident of the Town for at least one year prior to the election.  Our council members are elected "at large," which means that each council member represents the Town as a whole rather than a specific district within the Town.  Other important considerations include:

 

• Willingness to serve a 4-year term of office;
• Is available to meet at least once per month, usually on the fourth Thursday at 3:30 p.m., to conduct the affairs of the Town;
• Participation in selection of the mayor and vice-mayor for 2-year terms at a special or regular meeting following the elections;
• Represents the Town on one or more boards or committees in the county or state;
• Serves without remuneration.
