Jurisdictions include towns, cities, villages, boroughs, parishes, counties, states, and Indian tribes. The Chief Executive Officer is the highest ranking elected or appointed official of the jurisdiction (e.g. city mayor, city, town or village manager, state governor, county executive, chairman of the governing board, chairman of the county commissioners, Tribal chief or Tribal Governor).
