Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart.
~ Elizabeth Andrew
Volunteer committees offer citizens the opportunity to be involved in the community in a number of ways. Volunteers are a huge and valuable resource without which the City would not be able to provide a number of services.
The City provides a full range of municipal services, including two marinas that serve both a charter and large commercial fleet. Current population is 5,135. Warrenton's local government is organized according to a Commission-Manager type system in which the legislative and policy-making body is a popularly elected Commission consisting of 4 members and the Mayor.
