    • That’s an excellent question and I thought I’d look for an answer because I didn’t know either. Here’s what I found:

      Title 8 – PA General Assembly – Chapter 10A

      It contains these sections:
      10A01. Eligibility of mayor.
      10A02. Incompatible offices.
      10A03. Oath of mayor.
      10A04. Salary of mayor.
      10A05. Salaried mayor not to receive certain fees.
      10A06. General powers of mayor.
      10A07. Duties of mayor.
      10A08. President or vice president of council to act as mayor.

      It’s an interesting document and I’d guess something very few have ever read. Thanks for asking.
