head of (municipality or other institution/department)


Explanation:
Da, to je po mojem mišljenju vjerojatno "head". Mayor je gradonačelnik.

neutral  DolmetscherMK: nacelnik vrsi funkciju "mayor" u opcini koja nema status grada, kako je to koleginica Kristina objasnila. u Makedoniji su koristili "gradonacalnik" i u slucaju da je u pitanju selo-nezavisna opcina.

načelnik općine
mayor


Explanation:
ja bih rekla "mayor", jer funkcija gradonačelnika u Hrvatskoj postoji u mjestima koja imaju status grada, a u mjestima koja to nemaju postoje načelnici općina.

Na engleskom nema te razlike, iako na njemačkom jeziku imamo "Bürgermeister" i "Oberbürgermeister".

agree  SSL-Maida B: U Americi su nacelnici opcina "mayors", a ovo "opcinski", tj. "city", osim ako nije u tekstu tako napisano je redundantno.

Municipal Mayor, Head


Explanation:
U svakom slucaju, nacelnika opstine treba razlikovati od gradonacelnika: nacelnik opstine (BiH)/opcinski nacelnik (Hr)/predsednik opstine (Sr) "municipal mayor" (BiH, Hr), "president of municipality" (Sr) za razliku od "gradonacelnika" - Mayor.
Treba biti pazljiv sa upotrebom rijeci "head" za nacelnika opstine, jer
1.postoji i nacelnik "opstinske uprave", nacelnici za razne oblasti (Sr.), procelnici (Hr) kao posebne jedinice, ali i u regionalnoj/podrucnoj samoupravi Head ce se cesto upotrebljavati (nacelnik okruga, itd).
2.nacelnike opstina ipak biraju gradjani pa se "mayor" cini malo jacim izrazom, ispravite me ako grijesim, od pukog "head"
