The mayor of Rotorua officiates over the Rotorua Lakes District of New Zealand, which is administered by the Rotorua Lakes Council. An elected borough council first came together in February 1923; prior to that, the area had effectively been under government control. Rotorua has had 15 mayors as of 2022, and the current mayor is Tania Tapsell.
