Galveston Landmark Commission elects Sarah Click chair; Christian Bourgeois retained as vice chair

The Galveston Landmark Commission elected Sarah Click as chair and retained Christian Bourgeois as vice chair during its regular meeting on Monday, Oct. 20, 2025. The commission also adopted the minutes from its Sept. 15 meeting and adjourned at 4:11 p.m.

Nominations for chair were opened from the floor and Click was nominated and, after a call for a vote, declared elected. Commissioners then opened nominations for vice chair; Christian Bourgeois was nominated and retained his seat following a vote. The meeting record does not include a roll-call tally for either election; the chair announced the results after the votes.

The elections were routine, procedural actions following the commission's agenda. Chair Click thanked the commission after the result was announced. The meeting approved the minutes from Sept. 15 "as presented" before moving on to case hearings later in the agenda and adjourned at 4:11 p.m.

The commission did not identify any conflicts of interest at the start of the meeting. The panel listed Commissioner Stetsall Thompson as absent.
