At its Jan. 13 meeting the Gilroy Arts & Culture Commission elected Ruben as chair and a McCormick‑nominated commissioner as vice chair in voice votes; new leadership will oversee planning for upcoming public events and monthly business.
Ruben was elected chair of the Gilroy Arts & Culture Commission and a commissioner nominated by Commissioner McCormick was chosen as vice chair during a voice vote at the commission’s Jan. 13 meeting.
The new officers were nominated in the meeting’s new‑business section. Commissioner Zamora moved to nominate Ruben for chair; Ruben accepted the nomination and the motion carried with all present voting “aye.” The vice‑chair nomination was moved by Commissioner McCormick, seconded and approved by voice vote.
The commission cited City Charter section 9.04 requiring annual organization and officer election at the January meeting. The handover of meeting duties followed the votes and the newly seated chair assumed the rest of the agenda.
No formal dissent or recorded roll‑call tallies were entered in the transcript beyond the voice votes. The commission said the new leadership will preside over scheduled follow‑ups, including event planning and routine quarterly item reviews at upcoming meetings.
