| Law and Government |
| The City of Birmingham has a mayor/council form
of government with a 9-member city council. This replaced a
City Commission in 1962, primarily as a way to remove Commissioner
of Public Safety Eugene "Bull" Connor from power.
By Alabama law, an issue before a city council must be approved
by a two-thirds majority vote (Act No. 452, Ala. Acts 1955,
as supplemented by Act No. 294, Ala. Acts 1965.). Executive
powers are held entirely by the mayor's office.
