city employees

Town hall staff

City employees are people who work for a municipal government—the administrative body of a city or town.

This includes police officers, firefighters, sanitation workers, clerks, and administrators.

The term often appears in discussions of local budgets, union negotiations, or public services: City employees are demanding better benefits.
