The Sandusky City Commission elected Kate Vargo president and Greg Pujot vice president during the Jan. 12 meeting.

Commissioners opened nominations for president and nominated Kate Vargo; after a roll-call vote the chair declared Vargo elected for the 2026–2027 term. In brief remarks after her election, Vargo thanked fellow commissioners and said she looked forward to “continuing the progress for the city of Sandusky” and emphasized respect for differing perspectives on the commission.

Nominations for vice president produced three candidates. After separate roll-call votes for nominees, the clerk announced a winner with five votes for Greg Pujot; the chair declared Pujot the vice president for 2026–2027. Commissioners completed the procedural votes on the leadership changes before moving to the regular meeting agenda.

The elections were conducted by roll call and accepted unanimously on the items where recorded; commissioners proceeded immediately to other regular business.
