The City of Sebastopol is governed with a “Council-Manager” system that combines the policy leadership of elected officials in the form of a city council with the managerial expertise of an appointed city manager.
Some characteristics of this system are:

• City council oversees the general administration, makes policy, sets budget
• Council appoints a professional city manager to carry out day-to-day administrative operations
• The mayor is chosen from among the council on a rotating basis    

Neysa Hinton is the mayor of Sebastopol.
Mayor Hinton's term expires November 2020.

In addition to Mayor Neysa Hinton (term expires November 2020), the Sebastopol City Council consists of Vice Mayor Patrick Slayter (term expires November 2020) and Councilmembers Michael Carnacchi (term expires November 2019), Sarah Glade Gurney (term expires November 2020), and Una Glass (term expires November 2019).
