Michelle Wu will be sworn in as Boston's mayor in the City Council chamber at noon on Tuesday, Nov. 16. The two weeks' time between Wu’s election and her assumption of power is shorter than the typical two months since Wu is replacing an acting mayor, Kim Janey. Wu’s swearing-in will follow a farewell address from Janey, who, as City Council president, ascended to the mayoralty to finish out the term after Mayor Marty Walsh resigned to accept his appointment as U.S. Labor Secretary.
