Government

Malabar has a strong council form of government consisting of a five-seat Town Council (one from each of Malabar's five districts), and a mayor to serve as a figurehead and for ceremonial purposes. The council members must reside in the district they represent; each district's registered voters vote for their respective district council seat. Council members serve two year terms; district 1, 2, and 3 members are elected in even numbered years, and district 4 and 5 in odd numbered years. The mayor serves a four-year term elected the same year as the US presidential election. Town council members are subject to a three term (six year) term limit, but may run again and serve up to another six years after sitting out one term. The mayor has a two term (8 year) term limit, and may also run again after sitting out one term. Day-to-day operation of the Town and its finances is handled by a Town Administrator and a Town Clerk/Treasurer, both of whom report directly to the Town Council. Public works, the fire department, (a hybrid volunteer/paid professional department) report to the Town Administrator, and the clerk's office reports to the Town Clerk/Treasurer. There are several advisory boards authorized by the town charter who advise and report to the Town Council. In 2007, the town had a taxable real estate base of $282.32 million. Malabar currently and historically has the lowest property tax rates of any area of Brevard County, including unincorporated areas of the county.[5] In Early 2019, the Town Council voted unanimously to designate the Town as a Sandhill Crane Sanctuary, affording the birds extra attention to protect them within the Town Borders. It also designated the Sandhill Crane the official Town Bird. Town Resolution 08-2018, May 20, 2019.[6]
