FALL RIVER Cliff Ponte and Pam Lebeau were elected City Council president and vice president Tuesday night.
“I feel that over the last couple of years, with decorum and professionalism, it’s been my internal goal as council president. I feel as a leader on the City Council, I communicate well with the administration now, which certainly wasn’t like that with the previous administration,” said Ponte, referring to former mayor Jasiel Correia II.
Ponte was elected to the City Council in 2015 and first elected as City Council president by his peers in 2018 and the youngest member of the council at the time.
