Hico has no districts, so all of the Aldermen are elected "at-large". Elections are conducted each May. The Mayor and Aldermen used to receive a small amount of compensation, but in recent years they decided to devote what would have been paid in compensation toward special needs in the City. Currently, those funds are being used to help the Senior Citizens Center.
