re: What does a city councilman actually do?

Like what kind of problems? Trash pickup issues?

They get calls from people about all kinds of stuff, but yeah trash pickup is one. If people's trash isn't getting picked up they are calling their councilman.

Other reasons people call their councilman are:

Abundant properties
Sewage
Drainage
Traffic

Then they get calls about other things they really can't do much about.. Like people looking for jobs, people complaining about something their neighbor does, that they legally have the right to do, but for some reason those people think the city councilman can just go over and make them do whatever it is the person is complaining about.
