ENIn a democratic state, there are two governing systems, the state government and local self-government. Local self-government is an important because of the fact that the government may depend on the institutional structure of the whole work. Therefore, this article discusses the structural elements of the government system, focusing on the mayor, because the study aimed to reveal the role of the mayor's government institutional structure. Analysis of the documents revealed that the competence of the Mayor changed various: the increase of the number of competencies till decrease of responsibility by the law.
