Mayor of Sacramento

The Mayor of Sacramento is the elected official who leads the city government, representing residents and overseeing city operations. This role includes setting policy priorities, proposing budgets, and working with city council members to address issues like public safety, infrastructure, and community development. The mayor serves as a key voice for the city in regional and state matters, advocating for residents' needs. In Sacramento, the mayor's position is part of a council-manager system, where the mayor provides leadership and vision, but day-to-day administration is handled by a city manager appointed by the council.
