,Although the county has no role in a city's decision to establish a wards system,the county's election supervisor must <br /> be properly notified so that the primary election ballots can be prepared and the primary election conducted. <br /> Cities with Wards or Districts <br /> Below is a list of all the cities MRSC is aware of that have established wards or districts. Most of these cities still retain <br /> at least one or two at-large positions, although there are a few examples that elect the entire council by district. In <br /> most cases,there are more district/ward representatives than at-large councilmembers, but again there are a couple <br /> exceptions. <br /> First Class Cities <br /> • Aberdeen -12 councilmembers: 2 each from 6 wards <br /> • Bellingham - 7 councilmembers:1 at-large, 6 wards <br /> • Bremerton - 7 councilmembers: 7 districts <br /> • Seattle - 9 councilmembers: 2 at-large, 7 districts <br /> • Spokane - 6 councilmembers: 2 each from 3 districts <br /> • Tacoma - 8 councilmembers: 3 at-large, 5 districts <br /> • Yakima- 7 councilmembers: 3 at-large, 4 districts <br /> Second Class Cities <br /> • Colville - 7 councilmembers:1 at-large, 2 each from 3 districts <br /> • Ritzville -7 councilmembers: 2 at-large, 5 districts <br /> Optional Municipal Code Cities <br /> • Anacortes - 7 councilmembers: 4 at-large, 3 wards <br /> • Bainbridge Island -7 councilmembers: 1 at-large, 2 each from 3 wards <br /> • Blaine-7 councilmembers:1 at-large, 2 each from 3 wards <br /> • Burlington 7 councilmembers: 1 at-large, 6 wards <br /> • Camas-7 councilmembers: 1 at-large, 2 each from 3 wards <br /> • Centralia-7 councilmembers: 3 at-large, 4 wards <br /> • Chehalis - 7 councilmembers: 3 at-large, 4 districts <br /> • Chelan - 7 councilmembers: 1 at-large, 2 each from 3 wards <br /> • Hoquiam - 12 councilmembers: 2 elected from each of 6 wards <br /> • Mount Vernon - 7 councilmembers:1 at-large, 2 each from 3 wards <br /> • Kennewick - 7 councilmembers:4 at-large, 3 wards <br /> • Pasco -7 councilmembers: 2 at-large, 5 wards <br /> • Pullman - 7 councilmembers: 1 at-large, 2 each from 3 wards <br /> • Puyallup - 7 councilmembers:1 at-large, 2 each from 3 districts <br /> • Sedro-Woolley- 7 councilmembers: 1 at-large, 6 wards <br />
