Answer:

In the commissioner form of government,  the legislative and executive functions are performed by the elected commission.

Explanation:

A commission-type government is one in which there is no defined mayor or legislative council, but a commission in which its members do not exercise the legislative function or the administration, but both together. Thus, the commission creates the laws, their regulations and also governs their application. In this way, only the judicial sphere remains outside its power, but everything related to government is fully exercised by the commission.

Generally, these commissions are made up of 6 or more members, of which one is appointed mayor for the purposes of representation, but does not have a greater power than the rest.
