'Dear Mayor Smith' is acceptable for ordinary communication. 'Your Honor' is a more formal salutation. In Canada (and, I think, in Britain also) it might be better to use 'Your Worship.' (A mayor historically had the powers of a magistrate.) Check with the municipality's office of protocol when in doubt.
