deputy mayors
Mayors' official backups
Deputy mayors are officials who serve directly under a mayor, handling delegated responsibilities and often stepping in when the mayor is absent.
Large cities may have multiple deputy mayors overseeing different areas: the deputy mayor for housing, the deputy mayor for public safety.
The role varies widely—some deputy mayors hold significant power, others are largely ceremonial.
