Ontario, Canada.
The council consists of the
mayor plus a twelve-person council. The city is divided into twelve wards; each ward is represented by one councillor. The council meets at
Tom Davies Square.
The city was created by amalgamating the former City of Sudbury with six suburban municipalities on January 1, 2001. Initially, the council structure consisted of six wards, each represented by two councillors. Ward boundaries in the new city were drawn by grouping former suburban municipalities with adjacent neighbourhoods in the former city. For the
2006 municipal election, council was reorganized into twelve single-member wards.
Past mayors of the city and the former suburban municipalities are listed at

As the vacancies in wards 1 and 8 occurred less than six months prior to the
2014 municipal election, by provincial law both were required to be filled by temporary appointment to the seat rather than in a conventional
by-election. Sizer was appointed on June 26 to succeed Belli,
and McIntaggart was appointed on July 8 to succeed Cimino.
Unlike many cities in similar circumstances, Greater Sudbury City Council opted ''not'' to impose a requirement that the appointed councillors could not run for reelection in 2014; Sizer chose to run as a candidate and won reelection, while McIntaggart did not run.
