Watch: Philly mayor set to make ‘significant’ staff appointments

Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker is set to make several “significant appointments,” — as her office called them — to her administration on Thursday afternoon.

Just which roles she intends to fill her office has not yet announced.

However, at a recent event to name new members of her administration, Parker suggested she may name a new head of the city’s Department of Licenses and Inspections before the end of the week.

The mayoral event will be held at 1 p.m. and it will be livestreamed at the top of this story.

The new appointments are the latest in ongoing new roles that Parker has sought to fill since she took office.

This is a breaking news story. It will be updated as new information becomes available.
