A dijkgraaf, sometimes called a watergraaf, is the chair of a Dutch water board. The dijkgraaf is the equivalent of a mayor in local government and a King's Commissioner in provincial government, chairing both the legislative and executive council, while having both ceremonial and representational roles as well as their own portfolios. The term goes back to pre-medieval days. Literally the term means "Dike count", like other titles ending in -graaf of feudal origin, but remained a functional off
