Paco Moncayo Gallegos (born October 8, 1940 in Quito) is the current Mayor of Quito, Ecuador and a retired General of the Army.

During his military career he gained the respect and admiration of his fellow Ecuadorians mostly because of his conduct of the Alto Cenepa War between Ecuador and Perú.

In 2000 Paco Moncayo was elected Mayor of Metropolitan Quito on behalf of the Party of the Democratic Left, being re-elected for a second term in 2004.

As well as being Mayor of Metropolitan Quito he also was previously a National Deputy (1998-2000), and a member of both the National Security Council and its Consultative Assembly for Foreign Affairs.

He also is co-president of United Cities and Local Governments as of November 2007 and is longlisted for the 2008 World Mayor award.
