Council elects Mark Silvestri president, Joanne McKenna vice president for 2025
Summary
At its Jan. 13 meeting, the Revere City Council elected Mark Silvestri as council president and Joanne McKenna as vice president; both were sworn in and thanked colleagues and staff.
Mark Silvestri was elected city council president and sworn in at the Revere City Council meeting on Jan. 13, 2025; Joanne McKenna was elected vice president and also took the oath of office.
The full council cast votes during the meeting’s calendar items. After votes by voice, the clerk administered the oath to Silvestri, who thanked colleagues and singled out City Clerk Ashley Nelnik for her support. McKenna was then sworn in as vice president and expressed appreciation to colleagues and the clerk.
The leadership votes were carried out at the start of the regular meeting; councilors announced their selections aloud as the clerk recorded the results. Both elections were handled as routine calendar business and concluded without further debate.
The new officers will preside over council business for 2025. No separate vote totals beyond the roll-call vocalizations recorded in the meeting minutes were provided.
Looking ahead, the council proceeded to regular business and committee referrals under the newly installed leadership.
