The City of Folsom is a municipal government serving residents and the surrounding area from its offices in Folsom, California. Its roots go back to the Gold Rush, and the city is associated with early regional milestones, including the West's first railroad and the world's first long-distance electricity transmission. Today, Folsom is described as a modern, technology-oriented community with a mix of small businesses and international firms, as well as strong schools, family-friendly neighborhoods, and a range of shopping, dining, and cultural options. The City's General Plan, adopted in 1988, guides growth to preserve a human-scale core, place large retail centers where regional shoppers can access them without excessive traffic, and maintain a protected Historical District; it also calls for substantial parkland and active family-oriented civic programs. The City Council is the primary governing body, consisting of five members elected at large to four-year terms, and it designates a mayor and a vice mayor from among its members each year. In 2026, the city formed a partnership with Change.org to expand civic engagement, reflecting ongoing governance initiatives.
