Kramatorsk City Council
The Kramatorsk City Council is the representative body of local self-government for the city of Kramatorsk in Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine. It is headed by a mayor elected by the residents of the community and oversees the work of the council's executive bodies. The council decides on the municipal budget, communal property, land use and the development of city infrastructure. Since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion, Kramatorsk has remained one of the administrative centres of Donetsk Oblast, and the city council continues to govern the community under ongoing security threats.
