Germantown will soon ask its residents a big question: Should mayor become a full-time job?

Shelby County and the City of Memphis both have a strong mayor form of government. But most of Shelby County's suburban municipalities have a part-time mayor — with the exception of Bartlett, which switched to a full-time mayor in the '60s — and a Board of Mayor and Aldermen.
