Germantown voters decide on full-time mayor

The law requires Germantown’s mayor to serve full-time, but only after local voters approve the change. The Board of Mayor and Aldermen sets pay by ordinance to match full-time mayoral duties; no salary amount is specified. Approval requires a majority of qualified Germantown voters who cast ballots in the binding referendum. The vote is scheduled for May 5, 2026, if Shelby County holds a primary that day. Otherwise, it takes place August 6, 2026, alongside the county general election. Ballots must show the full-time service and salary language, with voters choosing for or against approval. Standard election laws and voter qualifications apply. The change takes effect only after all votes are counted and county election commissioners certify results to the Secretary of State.
