- Q5589233 abstract "The government of Louisville, Kentucky, administers Louisville Metro, a consolidation of the pre-2003 areas known as the City of Louisville and surrounding Jefferson County. It operates a unified mayor–council government, with an executive called the Mayor of Louisville Metro or "Metro Mayor" and a city council called the Louisville Metro Council or "Metro Council". Their administration oversees most of the responsibilities of both the former city and county; notable exceptions are the offices of County Clerk and Sheriff, which continue to operate separately due to continuing state constitutional requirements. Formed on January 6, 2003, Louisville Metro was the second such consolidated city-county government in the Commonwealth to form since Lexington, which merged with surrounding Fayette County in 1974.The second and current Metro Mayor is Greg Fischer (D), who entered office on January 3, 2011. The Metro Council consists of twenty-six seats, corresponding to single-member districts apportioned by population throughout the county. All of the seats are for four-year terms. Using a staggered process, half (thirteen) of the seats are reelected every two years. The council is chaired by a Council President, currently David Yates (D), who is elected by the council members annually. Democrats currently have a 65.4% (17 to 9 seat) majority on the council.Before merger, under the Kentucky Constitution and statutory law, Louisville was designated as a first-class city in regard to local laws affecting public safety, alcohol beverage control, revenue options, and various other matters. As of 2014, it is the only such designated city in the state.The Official Seal of the City of Louisville, no longer used following the merger, reflected its history and heritage: the fleur-de-lis represented French aid given during the Revolutionary War, and the thirteen stars signified the original British colonies. The new Seal of Louisville Metro retains the fleur-de-lis and has two stars, representing the city and the county.Kentucky's 3rd congressional district encompasses most of Louisville Metro, and is represented by Rep. John Yarmuth (D). The far southeast reaches of the community are in the 4th congressional district, which is represented by Thomas Massie (R). As of 2006, Democrats were the majority of registered voters in 424 of the 497 voting precincts in the 3rd congressional district. Louisville has not elected a Republican mayor since 1965.".
