The Zaporizhzhia City Council (Ukrainian: Запорізька міська рада, Ukrainian: Zaporiz’ka mis’ka rada) is a local government area that governs Zaporizhzhia, a city of regional significance located in southeast Ukraine.[3] Its population was 810,620 in the 2001 Ukrainian Census.
The Zaporizhzhia City Council (and the city of Zaporizhzhia itself), is governed by a mayor, who is elected every four years in local Ukrainian elections. The last election took place in 2015, and saw the election of independent candidate Volodymyr Buriak as mayor.[4] [5]
The municipality's legislative branch is the city council, which consists of 90 locally-elected deputies.[6]
The Zaporizhzhia City Council contains a total of seven administrative raions (districts):[7]
The former urban-type settlement of Teplychne (Ukrainian: Тепличне) was previously a settlement council and an administrative unit of the Shevchenko Raion, although it was annexed to Zaporizhzhia's city limits based on a resolution of the Zaporizhzhia Oblast Council dated 23 April 2009.[8]
