The leadership shuffle on the Providence City Council won’t be complete until the group meets Thursday night to elect a new president, but one change is already official: John Igliozzi, the second-longest-serving member of the council, is the new majority leader.
Igliozzi, a Democrat who has represented Ward 7 in Silver Lake since 1997, was elected to the No. 2 position on the council by seven of his colleagues at a private caucus Monday. If all goes as planned at Thursday’s council meeting, Ward 14 Councilman David Salvatore will be chosen as the new president of the city’s 15-member, all-Democratic legislative body, replacing acting president Sabina Matos.
