Beaumont — The City Council reorganized its leadership on Dec. 2, 2025, voting to appoint Mayor Pro Tem Jessica Voigt as mayor and later administering the oath of office.

An unnamed council member moved to appoint "Mayor Pro Tem Jessica Voigt as mayor," the motion carried on a roll call of members present. After the vote the council recessed briefly for photos and a swearing-in. The transcript records the oath and records the sworn party as "I, Jessica Boyette," when the oath was administered.

Council members offered remarks thanking the outgoing mayor for service and staff for support during the transition. Councilmember Finn and others praised the new mayor's leadership and experience.

The reorganization followed the council's adopted rules and rotation list; staff reminded members the code requires a minimum of three affirmative votes for selection. The council proceeded immediately into the regular session after the swearing-in.

The council did not take other formal actions related to the reorganization at that time; photos and a brief family gathering followed the ceremony.
