What are the mayor of Chicago's responsibilities and duties?
The mayor of Chicago has many responsibilities and duties, and, because I'm working on a homework project about it, I don't have way too much time to go into all of the details. Here are at least 10 taken from the municipal code. Look it up for more, though it is kind of hard to understand.
The mayor is to appoint the officials in most offices, although doesn't have the power to appoint the city clerk, city treasurer, or the city attorney, as those are elected by popular votes.
The mayor supervises all city officials, and if there is a complaint, the mayor acts and deals with the violator according to what the law demands, sometimes punishing said person.
Can enforce or designate someone to enforce any ordinance in the city.
The mayors signature must be on all licenses and permits granted by the city council.
The mayor can appoint a secretary to keep official documents and files, etc.
For the benefit of the city, the mayor is able and required to create a contract for the buying/releasing of personal property.
The mayor can release or discharge a person for breaking the Municipal code.
The mayor has the power/authority to display city flags on, in, and at all city buildings.
The mayor is to issue a proclamation of observance for Flag Day every year before June 10.
The mayor is the official coordinator of emergency activities. He/she is to make sure police officers and firemen are trained and ready for any attacks or natural disasters that might occur.
Again, check out the Municipal code. That's where I found just about all of these.
Hope this helps!

Hakata (博多区; -ku) is a ward in Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan with a population of 176,585. It is best known as the location of Fukuoka's main train station, Hakata Station. Hakata also houses the Fukuoka Prefecture offices, Fukuoka Airport, and the city's ferry terminal Hakata Harbor (博多港 Hakata-kō). Before 1889, Hakata was an independent town to the northeast of Fukuoka. Hakata, which was closer to the sea, housed the city's merchants, while Fukuoka housed the samurai. When the two cities merged, the samurai coerced the merchants into naming the combined city "Fukuoka". Hakata is the traditional center for the manufacture of Hakata ningyō, which are traditional Japanese dolls that are famous throughout Japan. It is also the home of Mentai Rock, named after the popular mentaiko dish served in the region, that spawned numerous J-pop idols during the early 1980s. Neo Mentai Rock is the name given to a recent renewal in activity from local musicians. Hakata-ben is the local Japanese dialect spoken in Fukuoka. Hakata played a role in the failure of the Mongol invasions of Japan. [hide]
