The City of Ypsilanti's Mayor is elected every four years. Ypsilanti has a council/manager form of government with a weak mayor. This means that the Mayor basically functions as an at-large Councilmember and presides over Council meetings, in contrast to "strong mayor" cities, like Detroit, where the Mayor's office has significant control over day-to-day governance of the city.
