Mayors

A mayor is an elected leader of a city or town, responsible for overseeing local government functions, implementing policies, and representing the community. They often work with city councils to pass laws, manage budgets, and address issues like public safety, roads, and services. Mayors can have varying degrees of authority depending on their city's government structure—some lead directly, while others serve more as figureheads. Their role is to ensure the city runs smoothly, reflects residents' needs, and plans for future growth, acting as both a decision-maker and a public representative.
