City Clerk's Office
Welcome to the City Clerk's Office! As your elected City Clerk, I serve as a vital link between the community, the City Council, and local government departments. My office is dedicated to providing welcoming, prompt, and accessible service to help you navigate municipal processes.
As custodian of the City's official records, I attend all City Council meetings to document proceedings, archive ordinances, resolutions, and meeting minutes, and maintain the Galesburg Municipal Code. Our office handles municipal licensing (including liquor, contractor, and pet registrations), manages cemetery records, and administers city pensions. Additionally, I serve as the Town Clerk for the Town of the City of Galesburg.
As the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Officer, I am committed to maintaining transparency and ensuring public records remain accessible in accordance with state guidelines.

Our Commitment
Guided by continuous training through the International Institute of Municipal Clerks (IIMC) and the Municipal Clerks Institute (MCI), my staff and I are continuously improving to serve you with excellence, integrity, and efficiency.
