Auburn was incorporated as a village in 1815, and the trustees of the village government were led by the village president. Auburn received its city charter in 1848, and thereafter the mayors of the city have presided over the common council or, as it is now called, the city council. Those who have wielded the mayor's gavel represent a wide array of professions and backgrounds. They have typically demonstrated a lifelong commitment to the wellbeing and advancement of the community.
