LaCava, who was Council President pro Tempore immediately preceding Tuesday's 9-0 vote, will replace Councilman Sean Elo-Rivera as the head of San Diego's legislative body.
The San Diego City Council Tuesday unanimously elected Councilmember Joe LaCava as its next president, capping a day in which LaCava was sworn into his second term.
The city faces a $258 million deficit in the coming fiscal year, in part because voters rejected a one-cent sales tax measure in November's election. "The constituents of District 7 were well served with you as council president," Councilmember Raul Campillo said.
