This is a list of mayors of St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador.
Between 1888-1898 council consisted of five councillors elected by wards and two members appointed by the Newfoundland government. Then from 1898-1902 government by commission. In 1902, legislation passed that dictated a municipal council would be formed by six councillors-at-large and one mayor, elected by those citizens of St. John's who pay property taxes. The city council currently comprises 11 members: the Mayor, the Deputy Mayor and nine councillors, five which represent wards throughout the city and four that are elected at large.
