List of mayors of Cleveland, Ohio
- List of mayors of Cleveland, Ohio
The Mayor of Cleveland is the chief executive of the city's government. In 1924, the mayor-council (strong mayor) form of government was replaced by a city manager plan. This was later reversed in 1931. Cleveland elections were partisan, but were made nonpartisan in 1977 under the mayoral administration of Ralph J. Perk. The term of office for the mayor and members of Cleveland City Council was traditionally two years, and was extended to four years in 1981.
Cleveland had a total of 57 mayoral administrations (this number includes the city's current mayor, Frank G. Jackson). Seven of these were nonconsecutive served terms by earlier mayors. [http://www.city.cleveland.oh.us/ Cleveland's official website] erroneously lists only 53 mayors. The second nonconsecutive terms of Joshua Mills, George B. Senter, and John H. Farley are not listed as well as Mayor Jackson. During the 2005 mayoral election, most media sources including "The Plain Dealer" and the city's major local news networks (WKYC, WEWS, WJW, and WOIO) all mistakenly referred to Jackson as Cleveland's 56th mayor, even though an actual count shows that he is really the 57th.
