Commissioners elect Walt as vice chairman
Summary
The Desert Hot Springs City commission unanimously elected Walt as vice chairman after a commissioner cited his prior commission service and law‑enforcement background; the motion passed during the meeting on Oct. 9.
The Desert Hot Springs City commission unanimously selected Walt as vice chairman at its meeting on Oct. 9. A commissioner who nominated him noted that Councilwoman Pi recently reappointed Walt to the commission and cited his prior commission experience and law‑enforcement background.
The nomination moved to a voice vote and passed without opposition. Chairman Lozano then addressed the newly elected vice chairman and said he would be calling him for duties going forward.
The selection came during the meeting’s new business portion, after commissioners approved the minutes and conducted routine roll call. The commission did not record a formal written second for the nomination in the public transcript; commissioners voiced their assent and the chair declared the motion passed.
No further formal actions were taken regarding the vice‑chairmanship at the meeting and commissioners proceeded to departmental reports.
