Waltham City Council Has New President
WALTHAM, MA — Waltham City Council has a new president. The City Council unanimously voted Councilor Paul Brasco to be the new council president after he was nominated by Councilor Joey LaCava Monday night.
Council President Brasco then appointed Ward 9 Councilor Robert Logan to continue as vice president, according to the City Clerk Robert Waddick.
The gig is not new to Brasco. He has been a city councilor for the past two decades, often running unopposed, and he served multiple terms as city council resident.
Brasco graduated from Waltham High School in 1993 and attended Mount Ida College in Newton, before graduating from the Commonwealth Institute of Funeral Service in Houston, Texas in 1995.
The lifelong Watch City resident then became a licensed Funeral Director in 1995 and that same year joined the family funeral home in Belmont and Waltham.
In 1999, Brasco was elected to the Waltham City Council as a city councilor at large, serving as a member of the License and Franchise Committee, the Public Works Committee, Ordinances and Rules Committee, and as vice president of the city council chairing the Committee of the Whole.
