The Town of Atlantic Beach’s municipal government is comprised of five Council members and the Mayor. The Council members and Mayor are elected for two-year terms, elected at-large. The Mayor is the “Chairman” of the Town Council, and presides at all meetings, only voting to break a tie. When the Mayor is absent, the Mayor Pro Tem conducts meetings. The Mayor Pro Tem is appointed by the Town Council.
