The City of Clyde, as provided in the City Charter, is a Council-Manager Government. Council enacts local legislation, adopts budgets, determines policies, and appoints a Manager.

Clyde City Council is made up of 5 council members at large, each elected to four year terms. Council nominates a mayor and vice mayor each year to run the council meetings and serve in social functions. Council holds legislative sessions on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 7:00 p.m. in Council Chambers at the Municipal Building, 222 North Main Street. Work sessions and special meetings are also held, when necessary.

Each year at the organizational meeting of Council, the mayor and vice mayor are chosen by the concurrence of a majority of Council. The mayor, in addition to his powers, rights and duties as a council member, presides at all council meetings and is recognized as the official head of the municipality for all ceremonial purposes, by the Governor for military purposes, and by the courts for the purpose of serving civil process. The vice-mayor performs the same duties, in the absence of the mayor.
