The City of Tulsa has a mayor-council form of government. This form of government has been in place since 1989, at which time Tulsa converted from a city commission form of government. The mayor is elected by the entire population and each of the 9 Councilors are elected from districts based on population. Tulsa is the county seat for Tulsa County. Within the boundaries of the city and surrounding county are tribal lands belonging to and governed by various Native American nations.

City HallOn July 12, 2007, the Tulsa City Council voted 8-1 to move the City Hall to One Technology Center.[6] HistoryTulsa's first city office building was a two-story brick building constructed in 1906 at 211 West Second Street. Primarily intended as a fire station, it included administrative offices and a police station. The city jail was in the basement.[7] The city quickly outgrew that facility and began renting office space in the privately owned Reeder Building. In 1917, Tulsa government offices moved into a much larger facility at Fourth and Cincinnati, formally called the Municipal Building to house city services. This served the city until the 1960s, when the Civic Center building was opened.[8] The Municipal Building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion C on July 18, 1975. Its NRIS number is 75001574.[9] References1. ^http://www.newson6.com/story/32330974/gt-bynum-defeats-incumbent-bartlett-for-tulsa-mayor 2. ^http://www.tulsacouncil.org/councilors/district-9.aspx 3. ^{{cite web|date=2007-06-13 |url=http://tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?articleID=070613_1_A9_hShet56844 |title=Mayor: City Hall move is crucial |publisher=Tulsa World |author=P.J.
