Section 1.04 — Presiding Officer, Election, Duties.
a) Chairperson: The Presiding Officer of the County Commission is
the Chairperson/Mayor, who shall be elected by a majority vote of the members
present at the regular meeting of the BOCC in November. The November
meeting in election years must be on the date newly elected commissioners
assume office as provided by law..
Selection of the Chairperson/Mayor shall be by nomination from the floor,
with no second required, followed by alphabetical roll call vote of Commissioners
on each nomination, in order of the nominations made. Selection of the Vice
Chairperson/Mayor Pro Tem shall be in an identical manner.
b) Vice Chairperson: If, for any reason, the Chairperson is absent or
unable to perform his/her duties, the Vice Chairperson, who will have been
elected under the same circumstances as the Chairperson, shall succeed him. If
the Commission determines that the disability or absence is expected to extend
for a period of time in excess of the length of the meeting at which this is
determined, a new Vice Chairperson shall be elected by a majority of the
members present at the meeting.
Florida law authorizes the County Commission to select its own officers. The Legislature enacted a
special act in 1965 that designates that Chair and Vice Chair of the Monroe County Commission as
the Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem. The Commission adopted Ordinance 003-1981 reaffirming those
titles.
