Good urban governance is aimed at improving the quality of life of citizens, identified by nine principles of the United Nations as its criteria. The purpose of this research is to analyze and investigate the role and position of the mayor in the formation of good urban governance in Tehran. The research is carried out with an analytical descriptive approach and the required information is taken by field survey and completion of the questionnaires. By non-random, purposeful and judicious method, obtained from the members of the local councils of Tehran, and using statistical software Excel and SPSS, and valuation variables, using the Likert scale, the factors were analyzed. After the T-test, the significance level (sig), the indicators of efficiency, transparency, core consensus are equal to 0.055, and in the indicators of
participation, accountability, legality, justice, and strategic insight, it was found to be 0.000; also the sig is less than 0.05, and the correlation coefficient is also positive; consequently, these findings indicate that the mayor of Tehran metropolitan area did not receive a score in all of the above indicators. So the main hypothesis of the research is not rejected.
