Take the Oath of OfficeLandmark: Ancient city of Priene ruins (near Söke).
Yenicami, Konak, Atatürk, Cumhuriyet.
Take office and each day brings a live situation from the city's services: a decision to make and a result that is measured. A term is judged on approval, infrastructure, environment and innovation, within the city's budget, and every term adds to the record Söke keeps on the Board of Mayors. Mayors message and confer with one another, form councils, trade with neighbouring cities and send aid where it is needed. Cities rise together.
