County executive

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Head of government of a US county

A county executive (or county mayor) is the head of government of a county in the United States. They are either elected by the citizens of the county or appointed by the county council or governor of the state.

The county executive signs bills passed by the county council into local ordinance, manages county government agencies, finances, projects, and services, and appoints the sheriff, county administrator, judges, and other officials of the county.
