The mayor of Tallahassee is the ceremonial head of the city government of Tallahassee, Florida and the chair of the City Commission. The position was created in 1992 and rotated between members, and eventually became an elected office in 2000 with Scott Maddox as its inaugural holder.
For part of the city's history the office of mayor was a rotating position chosen among city commissioners. Tallahassee switched to the direct election of its mayors in 1997.
