2020 Jefferson County municipal elections are scheduled to be held on August 25, 2020, with runoffs as needed held on October 6.

In April 2020 the executive committee of the Alabama League of Municipalities discussed whether to request that the Alabama State Legislature postpone municipal elections for a year due to the 2020 Coronavirus pandemic, tabling the matter until June. Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill issued guidance under the state's emergency declaration authorizing, "any qualified voter who determines it is impossible or unreasonable to vote at their polling place," to submit an absentee ballot for the municipal election by marking a box on the application reading, "I have a physical illness or infirmity which prevents my attendance at the polls." Absentee ballot applications must be accompanied by a photocopy of a state-issued identification. Absentee ballots themselves must be returned with a sworn affidavit, signed and witnessed by two other adults or by a notary public. They must be returned by the day prior to the election.

Pleasant Grove's election for City Council members was conducted on a "cumulative" basis as part of a settlement in a lawsuit that alleged its previous "at-large" system disadvantaged Black candidates. In cumulative voting, each voter may distribute five votes for council among any combination of one or more candidates. The five candidates with the most cumulative votes are named the winners of the election.
