The City Council nominated Councilmember Marisol Rubio as vice mayor pro tem; the motion was made by a fellow councilmember and seconded, and Rubio was confirmed. The appointment is scheduled to take effect at the council meeting on Dec. 9 and will run through January 2027 under the city’s policy on staggered terms tied to election cycles.

Council and community members congratulated Rubio and thanked outgoing officers for their service. No additional policy or budget action accompanied the appointment.
