Cottage Grove council adopts election results; newly elected members sworn in
Summary
The Cottage Grove City Council voted unanimously to adopt a staff proclamation declaring the results of recent municipal elections. The meeting included oaths of office for newly elected councilors and ceremonial remarks from Mayor Candace Solsby.
The Cottage Grove City Council voted unanimously Monday to adopt a staff-prepared proclamation declaring the results of the recent municipal elections and measures.
Councilor Evan moved that the council “adopt the results outlined in the proclamation we have before us,” and the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
The council then proceeded with ceremonial oaths of office for newly elected members. City Recorder Mindy Roberts administered the oaths on behalf of the city. Several councilors and the mayor took the oath; Councilor Settlemeier’s oath was deferred to the next meeting so it could be administered in person.
Mayor Candace Solsby used her remarks to recognize community service and to introduce the night’s mayoral awards. Solsby also asked the council and community to set aside political differences following the election and to collaborate on city priorities.
No controversial objections to the proclamation or the oaths were recorded in the meeting transcript. The formal adoption of the proclamation and the administering of oaths completed the meeting’s opening business and allowed the council to proceed to regular agenda items.
