Leningrad City Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 1 min

The Leningrad City Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, commonly referred to as the Leningrad CPSU gorkom, was the position of highest authority in the city of Leningrad (until January 26, 1924, Petrograd) roughly equating to that of mayor. The position was created in March 1918, and abolished on August 24, 1991. The First Secretary was a de facto appointed position usually by the Politburo or the General Secretary himself. Until the abolition of the CPSU monopoly on power on March 14, 1990, he had actual power in Leningrad.
