text: **Presidents of the Metropolitan Council**
  
  The two first presidents of the Metropolis of Lyon's metropolitan council were chosen by 
  indirectly elected metropolitan councilors. The current president since July 2020 was elected by 
  new metropolitan councilors following their election by universal suffrage in March (1st round) 
  and June (2nd round) 2020, the first direct election of a metropolitan council in France.
