Domenick Mucci Jr.

Domenick Mucci Jr. (born 1956) served as Mayor of Steubenville, Ohio, winning six four-year terms of office from 1993 to 2017.

He is also the executive director for the Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce.

A Steubenville native, Mucci's parents were both born and raised in Steubenville, and his father was a second generation immigrant from Italy.

On July 31, 2011, Mucci hit two parked vehicles in Steubenville at 2:22am.

In 2012 for example, Mayor Mucci attended 302 meetings in the community, presided over 48 council meetings, and performed 34 weddings.

In rare instances, the Mayor breaks a tie in city council voting.

Mucci has had three alcohol-related driving offenses.

In the 2013 election, Mucci won 50.41% of the vote against challenger Lou Arrico, a Republican, who had previously run against Mucci in 2009 and lost by a thousand votes.

Turnout in 2013 was 30.74%.

Mucci was the acting city manager of Steubenville in 2013.

Though the mayor is responsible for appointing people to several boards and commissions, mayor is largely a ceremonial position, with such roles as presiding over Council meetings and representing the city at regional and state meetings.

After originally entering a not guilty plea on August 1, 2013, Mucci pleaded guilty to drunk driving on August 23, and was sentenced to three days in jail, one year of probation, a $524 fine, and six months of limited driving privileges.

Mucci spent October 14–16 in the Harrison County, Ohio, jail.

Mucci announced in January 2017 that he would not seek re-election.

He was succeeded by Jerry Barilla.
