It has 51 members from 51 council districts throughout the five boroughs.The council serves as a check against the mayor in a mayor-council government model, the performance of city agencies' land use decisions, and legislating on a variety of other issues.

History

The history of the New York City Council can be traced to Dutch Colonial times when New York City was known as New Amsterdam. On February 2, 1653, the town of New Amsterdam, founded on the southern tip of Manhattan Island in 1625, was incorporated as a city under a charter issued by the Dutch West India Company. A Council of Legislators sat as the local lawmaking body and as a court of inferior jurisdiction. During the 18th and 19th centuries the local legislature was called the Common Council and then the Board of Aldermen. In 1898 the amalgamation charter of the City of Greater New York renamed and revamped the council and added a New York City Board of Estimate with certain administrative and financial powers. After a number of changes through the ensuing years, the present Council was born in 1938 under a new charter which instituted the council as the sole legislative body and the New York City Board of Estimate as the chief administrative body. Certain functions of the council, however, remained subject to the approval of the board.In 1938, a system of proportional representation known as single transferable vote was adopted; a fixed quota of 75,000 votes was set, so that the size of the council fluctuated with voter turnout.{{HathiTrust |htid=mdp.39015082604532 |title=Proposed Charter for the City of New York}} (Chapter 43 §1007:g) The term was extended to four years in 1945 to coincide with the term of the mayor. Proportional representation was abolished in 1947, largely from pressure from Democrats, who played on fears of Communist council members being elected (two already had).WEB, Amy, Douglas J., A Brief History of Proportional Representation in the United States,weblink April 30, 2014, 1996, It was replaced by a system of electing one Council Member from each New York State Senate district within the city. The Charter also provided for the election of two Council Members-at-large from each of the five boroughs. In June 1983, however, a federal court ruled that the 10 at-large seats violated the United States Constitution's one-person, one-vote mandate.Andrews v. Koch, 528 F.Supp. 246 (1981), aff’d sub nom., Giacobbe v. Andrews, 459 U.S. 801 (1982).In 1989, the Supreme Court ruled that the Board of Estimate also violated the one-person, one-vote mandate. In response, the new Charter abolished the Board of Estimate and provided for the redrawing of the council district lines to increase minority representation on the council. It also increased the number of Council Members from 35 to 51. The council was then granted full power over the municipal budget, as well as authority over zoning, land use and franchises. In 1993 the New York City Council voted to rename the position of president of the city council to the Public Advocate. As the presiding officer, the Public Advocate was an ex officio member of all committees in the council, and in that capacity had the right to introduce and co-sponsor legislation.WEB, The Role of the Public Advocate,weblink Office of NYC Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, April 28, 2020, However the city charter revision of 2002 transferred the duties of presiding officer from the Public Advocate to the Council Speaker; the Public Advocate remains a non-voting member of the council.WEB, Cardwell, Diane, Betsy Gotbaum, the Advocate, Struggles to Reach Her Public,weblink The New York Times, December 2, 2002, April 28, 2020, In 2022, the composition of first female majority City CouncilBOOK, Rosner, Molly,weblink Making It Here: A Publication in Honor of the First Female Majority in New York City Government, LaGuardia and Wagner Archives, 2022, Long Island City, New York, included the first Muslim woman, the first South Asian members, and the first openly gay Black woman.WEB, Hogan, Gwynne, Cruz, David, 2021-07-07, The Next City Council Set To Be Most Diverse, Progressive, And Hold First-Ever Female Majority,weblink 2022-03-23, Gothamist, en,

Term limits

A two-term limit was imposed on city council members and citywide elected officials in a 1993 referendum. The movement to introduce term limits was led by Ronald Lauder, the heir to the Estée Lauder fortune. In 1996, voters turned down a council proposal to extend term limits. Lauder spent $4 million on the two referendums.However, in 2008, under pressure from Mayor Michael Bloomberg (who, like many Council members, was facing the end of his two-term limit at that time), the council voted 29–22 to extend the limit to three terms; the council also defeated (by a vote of 22–28, with one abstention) a proposal to submit the issue to public referendum.WEB,weblink Council Votes, 29 to 22, to Extend Term Limits, Chan, Sewell, Hicks, Jonathan P., October 23, 2008, The New York Times, April 28, 2020, Legal challenges to the extension of term limits failed in federal court. The original decision by Judge Charles Sifton of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York (Long Island, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island) was upheld by a three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (Vermont, Connecticut and New York), and a proposal in the New York State Legislature to override the extension was not passed.WEB,weblink The Future of Term Limits Is in Court, Santos, Fernanda, October 24, 2008, The New York Times, April 28, 2020, , p.

Presiding officers since 1898

Through several changes in title and duties, this person has been, together with the Mayor and City Comptroller, one of the three municipal officers directly elected by all of the city's voters, and also the person who—when the elected mayor resigns, dies, or otherwise loses the ability to serve—becomes acting mayor until the next special or regular election.WEB, New York City Charter, ch. 1, §10,weblink nyc.gov, City of New York, August 19, 2016, Until 1989, these three officers, together with the five borough presidents, constituted the New York City Board of Estimate. Political campaigns have traditionally tried to balance their candidates for these three offices to appeal as wide a range of the city's political, geographical, social, ethnic and religious constituencies as possible (and, when possible, to both genders).{{Col-begin}}{{Col-break}}{|class="wikitable"! width = "16%" | Name! width = "23%" | Start and end dates as presiding officer! width = "23%" | Party !
