Four Metro Council members have served as President Pro Tempore during the 2023–2027 term. The President Pro Tempore is elected by their fellow council members to preside when the vice mayor, who is the president of the Metro Council, is unavailable and to keep Council business running smoothly. You will see the “Pro Tem” presiding during the 6:00 p.m. Announcements & Presentations, in advance of every regular Council meeting.
In accordance with the Metro Code, if the mayor is unable to serve, the vice mayor shall serve as the mayor, and the president pro tem of the Council shall serve as the vice mayor.
Congratulations to Olivia Hill, elected on Tuesday, September 1, and thank you to all previous presidents pro tempore for their leadership and service.
