In 2007, Mitchell ran for Metro Council in District 35, which includes part of Bellevue, winning 56–44.[4] In 2011, he successfully ran for re-election, winning 65-35.[5] Due to term limits in the Metropolitan Charter, Mitchell's current term in this office will be his final one, at least consecutively.

The primary was held on August 3, 2000, Mitchell came in second with 2,586 to David Shepard who won with 3,329.[9] Shepard won the subsequent general election in November and still represents most of that area in the Tennessee General Assembly, although district boundaries have changed considerably due to subsequent redistricting.
