==== Alder(wo)men ====
The executive council in Dutch municipalities is called the ''College of the Mayor and Aldermen'' (Dutch: ''[[College van Burgemeester en Wethouders]]'' or ''College van B&W'' for short). The [[burgemeester|mayor]] is appointed by the [[monarchy of the Netherlands|monarch]], but the council of [[wethouder|aldermen]] is composed as a result of the formation of a local [[coalition government]]. This coalition is formed in such a way as to be able to rely on a majority of the votes in the city council.
