The City of Flagstaff operates with an elected mayor and council members who establish policy and offer guidance, delivers services through its departments while promoting public involvement via boards, commissions, and elections; it also received designation as the world’s first International Dark Sky City in 2001 after adopting zoning codes limiting outdoor lighting per acre in 1989 and enacting an ordinance managing outdoor lighting issues as early as 1958, according to the official website.
