CITY GOVERNMENT
The City of Goshen, a second-class city, operates under a Mayor-Council form of government. There are six Aldermen, two from each of the city's three wards, who are elected at large. The Goshen City Council meeting is held on the second Tuesday of each month at 6:30pm. The Goshen Planning Commission consists of seven members who meet at 5:30pm on the first Tuesday of each month when there are items of business to discuss. Both meetings are held at the Goshen Community Center, 244 Clark Street, and are open to the public. You can watch the City Council Meetings live at https://www.youtube.com/@GoshenArkansas
