Government of Night City

The Government of Night City, headquartered at the Night City City Hall in the Glen, is the governmental body of the Free City of Night City.
==Overview==
Night City is a democratic mayoralty with a corporate-controlled city council. In mayoral elections, votes are cast via a Data Term using IdentiCard registration software, and the winner of an election is determined by a simple majority of the popular vote. The Night City Council consists of 100 members, each of whom are usually backed by one of the top ten largest corporations present in Night City.
In 2045, during the Time of the Red, Night City's government continued to exist in a technical state of emergency due to the destruction and disruption caused by the Night City Holocaust of 2023. The office of mayor had been left vacant for years, and the city was instead ruled by the City Council, which took the form of a junta representing survivors of the previous city government, edgerunner and nomad factions, and numerous corporations — including Zetatech, Biotechnica, Petrochem, and secretly Arasaka. The Council appointed City Managers to oversee basic services in each of the city's districts and neighborhoods. Without a mayor or strong central leadership, friction between the Council's factions frequently led to disputes that were sometimes settled with violence on the streets. Since no single faction was able to gain a decisive advantage over the others, they all kept to their own areas of interest as much as possible to keep fighting to a minimum.
During 2077, Georgina Zembinsky acted as the district attorney of Night City. At some point before her, Jefferson Peralez was the city's district attorney.
==Office of the Mayor==
The mayor of Night City is the city's highest governing representative. They oversee the treasurer's office, the deputies to the mayor and directs the heads of the city's departments, such as the NCPD and the NCFD. They have the power to appoint department heads and commissioners as well as remove public officials from office. With every new mayor comes a new office and personnel.
The city's system of governance is based on the authority of the mayor in cooperation with the City Council. Part of the mayor's proposals are subject to approval from the council.Office of the Mayor of Night City netsite
