The city of Vancouver is governed at the municipal level by the Vancouver City Council, which consists of a mayor and ten councilors. Public elections for these offices are held every three years. In addition to the council, there are several important boards and committees in the city and the metropolitan area, including the Greater Vancouver Regional District Board of Directors (representing 18 municipalities) and the Vancouver Regional Transit Commission.Microsoft® Encarta® Online Encyclopedia 2001 http://encarta.msn.com © 1997-2001 Microsoft Corporation.
