Mayor of Venice

The Mayor of Venice (Italian: sindaco di Venezia) is an elected politician who, along with the Venice City Council of 36 members, is accountable for the strategic government of the municipality of Venice, Veneto, Italy.

The current office holder is Luigi Brugnaro, a centre-right wing independent businessman who has been in charge since 2015. The last election took place in 2020.

Overview
According to the Italian Constitution, the Mayor of Venice is a member of the City Council, but the six borough presidents are not considered Mayors because they are not the heads of separate municipalities.

The Mayor is elected by the population of Venice. In addition to electing the Mayor, the citizens of Venice also elect the members of the City Council. The City Council has the power to set policy guidelines for the Mayor and to remove him from office through a vote of no confidence.The Mayor is entitled to appoint and release the members of his government.

Since 1993, the Mayor of Venice has been elected directly by the city's voters. In cities with a population over 15,000, the voters can either choose the Mayor directly or vote for a party in the Mayor's coalition. If no candidate receives at least 50% of votes, the top two candidates go to a second round after two weeks. The election of the City Council is based on a direct vote for a candidate with a preferential vote system: the candidate with the most preferences wins. The number of the seats for each party is determined proportionally.

The seat of the City Council is the city hall Ca' Loredan on the Canal Grande.
