The Executive Mayor and the Members of the Mayoral Commitee
The Executive Mayor
Dr Gwen Ramokgopa
The Executive Mayor is the first citizen of the City of Tshwane and has the overall political responsibility for the City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality. The Executive Mayor represents the face of the city and is responsible for managing all its affairs. This is a mammoth task in a city that accommodates about 2,2 million people. Therefore a mayoral committee was set up to assist the Executive Mayor. Acting as a local cabinet, the Mayoral Committee is made up of 11 members, including the Executive Mayor, who is also its chairperson. Each Member of the Mayoral Committee has certain responsibilities.

The municipal administration

The Executive Mayor and the Mayoral Committee have a political responsibility for sound governance and effective service delivery, promotion of economic growth and development, management of the city’s physical development, promotion of the well-being of the community at large, safety and security, preservation of the city’s natural and cultural resources and the strengthening of the city’s national status as a capital.

The Executive Mayor and the Mayoral Committee have established the administrative arm of the Municipality to implement broad political and strategic objectives. The Municipal Manager, assisted by the Chief Operating Officer, heads up the administration of the Municipality. The Municipality`s administration has been arranged into ten departments, each headed by a strategic executive officer. The departments are Metropolitan Police, Economic Development, Marketing and Tourism, Social Development, Corporate Services, Emergency Management Services, Service Delivery, Legal Services, Finance, and City Planning, Housing and Environmental Management.
