The Zaporizhzhia Municipality (and the city of Zaporizhzhia itself), is governed by a mayor, who is elected every four years in local Ukrainian elections. The last election took place in 2015, and saw the election of independent candidate as mayor.[1][2]

The former urban-type settlement of Teplychne (Ukrainian: Тепличне) was previously a settlement council and an administrative unit of the Shevchenko Raion, although it was annexed to Zaporizhzhia's city limits based on a resolution of the Zaporizhzhia Oblast Council dated 23 April 2009.[8]
