county executive
Local government head
A county executive is the chief administrator of a county government, functioning much like a mayor does for a city.
The position exists in counties that use an executive form of government rather than being run solely by commissioners or supervisors.
The county executive typically oversees daily operations, proposes budgets, and appoints department heads: The county executive announced plans to expand public transit.
