City Clerk Department

Our services support the people of Berkeley’s participation in their City government. 

We provide citywide oversight and administration for legislative proceedings of the City Council and its subcommittees. As the Elections Official and Filing Officer, the City Clerk administers municipal elections, campaign finance, and conflict of interest regulations. As the Records Manager, the department administers the Citywide Records Management Program to maintain the integrity of documented actions of the legislative bodies and accessibility to public records and information to the community.
