Did you know: The USS Enterprise-D maintains a civilian government. The Enterprise Civilian Council (ECC) consists of a mayor, an administrator, and seven at-large representatives. The mayor and representatives are elected (by all ship civilians) every two years, on May 1, while the administrator is appointed, by the council, to handle the day-to-day civilian operations. The ECC oversees all matters of civilian policy and budget aboard the Enterprise, with the Mayor serving as liaison to the Starfleet command staff.
The current Mayor of the ECC is Human, Dell Ridley.
The next ECC election will take place in just over a year, on May 1, 2367. Under the original civilian charter, this year would have been an election year, however, it was pushed to next year, on account of our time travel through the Devron Anomaly.
