Gian Luca Zattini (born 12 April 1955 in Meldola) is an Italian politician.
Zattini studied as MD and works as dentist; he was a member of the Christian Democracy (1980–1994) and served as member of municipal council (from 1975) and mayor of Meldola for two terms from 2009 to 2019.[2][3]
He was elected Mayor of Forlì at the 2019 local elections with the civic list Forlì cambia (Forlì changes), supported by the League, The People of the Family and a centre-right coalition.[4] Zattini won the centre-left coalition that had administered the city since 49 years. He took office on 11 June 2019.[5][6]
In March 2020, he authorized the municipal police to use pilotless aircraft for monitoring citizens and for crime prevention.[7] It has been one of the first Italian cases of use of drones at the service of a civil authority.
