No. The townspeople seem to belong to the council!
Actually, the council is the government and it belongs to the crown (currently the queen). The council is run by the civil service (crown employees).
Councillors are not really part of the council. They are not civil servants as they do not work for the crown. They play a parliamentary role, for the people.
But you try telling them that, and they won't believe you!
