As of Jan. 1, Council Member Phil Wong dropped the -elect from his title and officially took office representing District 30 and replacing his former boss, Robert Holden. Wong stayed true to his word and retained the entirety of Holden’s staff, including Alicia Vaichunas, his former opponent during the election, who will return to her same position as deputy chief of staff.
“We hit the ground running on Day One,” said Wong. “This team has years of experience, they are from the district, they know what the community needs, and they’ve been doing the hard work day in and day out. We’ll continue the great work that’s been done and work even harder for this community.”
