The Mayor of Minneapolis is the chief executive officer of the City of Minneapolis, Minnesota, responsible for overseeing the city's administration. As the political and ceremonial leader of the city, the mayor also represents Minneapolis on the state, national, and international levels. The Mayor's Office is located in the Minneapolis City Hall.[1]

History

Minneapolis has had a politically diverse set of mayors since its incorporation. In the years since its incorporation, the political representation in the mayoral office has shifted. The city has seen mayors from the Republican, Democratic, Democratic-Farmer-Labor, Farmer-Labor, and Socialist parties, as well as from unaffiliated backgrounds. Notable historical figures include A.A. "Doc" Ames, known for his multiple terms and controversial tenure, Hubert Humphrey, who later became Vice President of the United States, and Sharon Sayles Belton, the first African American and first woman to hold the office.

Term in office

The term of office for the Mayor of Minneapolis is four years, with no limit on the number of terms an individual can serve. The inauguration of the newly elected mayor takes place in January following the municipal election.

From 1867 to 1878 mayors were elected for a 1-year term. Beginning in 1878 the term was extended to 2 years. The term was extended to 4 years beginning in January 1982, to provide mayors with more time to achieve their programs.[2]

Role

As Minneapolis' chief executive officer, the mayor is tasked with enforcing all municipal laws, overseeing and coordinating the activities of city departments, and drafting and presenting the city budget at the close of each fiscal year.[3][4] The mayor holds the authority to approve or veto legislation passed by the Minneapolis City Council.[5]

The Mayor's Office, which includes the mayor and several staffers, is involved in information technology, neighborhood and community relations, public safety, public works, racial inclusion, and climate.[6]
