The Saint Paul City Council is the governing body of Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States, as part of a strong mayor–council government. It has seven members from seven wards, each elected to four-year terms. As of 2024, all seven are members of the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party, although city elected official positions are nonpartisan according to state law, and political party identifications are not included on election ballots.

As of February 2023, council members earn $70.28 per hour. However, they are classified as part-time employees and are compensated for only 40 hours per pay period (equivalent to about $73,000 annually).
