Cooley and McGarvey Named 2010 Mayor and Vice Mayor; Ceremony in Two Weeks
Rancho Cordova Council Members voted to elevate current Vice Mayor Ken Cooley to Mayor for 2010 in Monday’s meeting, and Council Member Robert McGarvey will be elevated to the position of Vice Mayor as well.
The official change in leadership will occur on Dec. 21, and current Mayor Dan Skoglund will address the new appointments during the ceremony. Skoglund was appointed to the City Council in 2004 after Council Member David Roberts passed away, and he was elected to a full term as a Council Member in 2006. Skoglund served as Vice Mayor in 2008 and was elevated to Mayor in 2009.
“I’ll have some remarks in the next two weeks,” Skoglund said after the council voted to elevate Cooley and McGarvey. ”I really have enjoyed working with staff. They’ve been really helpful to me.”
The new titles should be familiar for Cooley and McGarvey — in 2005, the pair served in the same positions they will be filling next year. Both Council Members were re-elected to office in 2008 and will serve on the City Council until 2012.
City Manager Ted Gaebler congratulated Cooley and McGarvey for their elevations to their new positions, and he expressed gratitude for the Council’s support over the past year.
Skoglund joked that he hopes there will not be a coup at the next meeting’s appointments. “We’ll have a smooth transition two weeks from today,” he said.
