(a)        Except as otherwise herein provided in this Charter, all powers of the city shall be vested in a council of a mayor and six councilmembers, all nominated and elected from the city at large in the manner hereinafter provided. The mayor and members of the council, and all other officers, elected under the provisions of this Charter, shall at the time of their election be qualified electors of the City of Asheville.

(b)        The term of the mayor and councilmembers shall begin at the first regular meeting of the city council next following their election as set forth hereinafter. The term of office of the mayor and six councilmembers shall be four years, and shall be so staggered that the terms of office of three councilmembers shall expire every two years. Said staggered terms shall begin following the election of 1997, 2019, with those three persons elected to council who receive the highest number of votes of the entire council to serve four year terms to expire in 2001, 2023, and the other three persons elected to council to serve two year terms to expire in 1999. 2021. Commencing with the 1999 2021 election, all terms of office for council members shall be four years.

(c)        The councilmembers shall reside in and be elected from six separate districts, as set forth in this section. If this section does not specifically assign any area within the City to a district, and the area is entirely surrounded by a single district, the area shall be deemed to have been assigned to that district. If this section does not specifically assign any area within the City to a district, and the area is contiguous to one or more districts, the area shall be deemed to have been assigned to that district which contains the least population according to the most recent federal decennial Census. If this section specifically assigns to a district any area that is not in the corporate limits of the City, that area outside the corporate limits is not added to the corporate limits and no voter that resides in that area outside the corporate limits may vote in the City election. The names and boundaries of voting tabulation districts, tracts, block groups, and blocks specified in this section are as shown on the 2010 Census Redistricting TIGER/Line Shapefiles. If any voting tabulation district boundary is changed, that change shall not change the boundary of a district, which shall remain the same as it is depicted by the 2010 Census Redistricting TIGER/Line Shapefiles. The districts are as follows:
