The City of Bonham provides a wide variety of public services to its residents, including police, fire and emergency services; parks and recreation facilities; library; senior programming; economic development; public works and engineering; street maintenance; water, wastewater and drainage utility services; and contracts for solid waste collection and disposal. 

Our work is done with you, the citizen, in mind, and is organized under the Council-Manager form of government. This area of the website will introduce you to city leaders, the boards and commissions that oversee specific areas of our community, and the Bonham City Council, a team of six elected representatives responsible for enacting local legislation, setting policies and adopting Bonham’s annual operating budgets.
