A new Mayor is chosen each year to fulfil two important roles:

  • To chair the meetings of Council
  • To be First Citizen of the Borough

Chairman of Council

As Chairman of Council, the Mayor is responsible for seeing that our meetings are conducted in a seemly manner in accordance with our constitution. They also carry a casting vote in the event of a tied vote.
