I'd say your student council rep will be able to accomplish exactly nothing. School administrations, in my experience, tolerate student government but are not going to be influenced by it unless its an extreme case.
If it were me, I would send the professor an email or letter re-expressing your concerns about the class. You might even throw in that you wouldn't have signed up for the class if you knew that it would let out at 5:30 instead of the 4:50 printed in the schedule. Be as non-confrontational as possible and approach it as a simple problem that needs to be solved amicably.
If he gets nasty or is still habitually late, I would then move up in the chain of command and make sure that you document the hell out of everything. If the professor takes it personally and decides to give you grades you don't deserve, you'll have something to take to a review board, etc.
Again if it were me, I'd try to find the absolutely friendliest way possible to solve it. You may even want to tell him in person that the overruns might make you drop the class since you can't afford to be late to work anymore.
And listen to Feelgood and don't even think of mentioning that he shows up late.
Good luck!
