InfoKelly was elected to City Council representing the Seventh District in 1987 but was unseated four years later by Daniel McElhatton. For most of the past 12 years, Kelly has served as an aide to the City Council president -- first John Street, then Anna Verna. His friendships and ties to members of both parties make Kelly an attractive candidate for political fence menders who favor coalition building. As councilman, Kelly would work to strengthen the hospitality industry, improve public education and lower Philadelphia’s wage tax. A married father of four, Kelly still lives in his old neighborhood in the Northeast section of the city.
