The '''mayor mayoralty of Pensacola''' is a position that has fluctuated throughout the city's history. The first recorded mayor, under Spanish rule, was [[Jose Noriega]] (1820-1821). During the Civil War the city government went into exile in Greenville, Alabama, until it was restored in 1866. Other changes occurred in 1885, when Florida governor [[E.A. Perry]] tried to replace the city charter with a state-appointed commission, and in 1916, when the city changed to a council-manager form of government and the position was appointed by the [[Pensacola City Council|city council]]. It was changed again to an elected position in 2001 under [[John Fogg]], who remains the incumbent.
