According to the Selma town charter, "The Mayor shall be the official head of the Town government and preside at meetings of the Council". According to Merriam-Webster, the definition of preside means "1: to exercise guidance, direction, or control2 a: to occupy the place of authority : act as president, chairman, or moderator b: to occupy a position similar to that of a president or chairman" It does not say DICTATE and abridge the rights and responsibilities of other members of the council. We do not live under a dictatorship.
