Jerica Preston appointed to Riverton City Council Ward 2 after interviews and executive session
Summary
After interviewing two candidates for the Ward 2 vacancy and meeting in executive session, the council appointed Jerica Preston by voice vote and administered the oath of office during the same meeting.
The Riverton City Council interviewed two candidates to fill a vacancy in Ward 2 and, following an executive session for personnel matters, voted to appoint Jerica Preston to the seat.
Preston described herself during the interview as a long‑time resident who "moved here when I was 6" and noted community involvement through work with the Hampton Inn and the Riverton Chamber. The council moved into an executive session and, after returning, Councilwoman Borders moved to appoint Preston; the motion passed by voice vote and Preston was sworn in at the meeting.
The transcript records the oath with the inductee repeating the oath language. (Transcript contains a near‑verbatim oath; the oath text in the public record appears to say a name that differs by one letter in a single line of the transcript — the council named Jerica Preston and swore the new council member in on the record.)
