The Mayor of Warsaw, or more literally the President of Warsaw (the official title in Polish is "Prezydent Miasta Stołecznego Warszawy", literal translation "President of the Capital City of Warsaw") is the head of the capital of Poland.

Following the Warsaw Act (Ustawa warszawska) of 27 October 2002, the Mayor of Warsaw carries over most of the executive duties in the city. His or her prerogative is, among others, governing the city-owned property that still constitutes a major part of the city.

Current mayor

The current mayor is Civic Platform Rafał Trzaskowski, who took office on 22 November 2018.

Übersicht

Seat of the Mayor, the Commission Palace.

Legislative and local executive powers are exercised by the city council (rada miasta), the directly elected mayor (prezydent), and the city offices (urząd miasta).

Since 1990 the President of Warsaw had been elected by the city council.[1]

In the years of 1994–1999 the mayor of the district Centrum automatically was designated as the President of Warsaw: the mayor of Centrum was elected by the district council of Centrum and the council was elected only by the Centrum residents.

Elections

Since 2002 the President of Warsaw is elected by all of the citizens of Warsaw. The seat of the Mayor is the city hall, known as Commission Palace or Palace of the Ministry of Revenues and Treasury.
