The Holly Springs City Council sets all policies for the city including fiscal and administrative policy for the city government. The councilmembers' terms of office are for four years. Elections occur every two years so terms are staggered.

Each year the City Council selects one of their members to be mayor pro tem. The current mayor pro tem is Jeremy Smith. The selected member of the council takes on the role of mayor in his/her absence.

All posts are city-at-large positions with no geographic residency requirements, except as provided in Article II, Section 2.02 of the City of Holly Springs Charter.
