New Mayor appointed for Lancaster

(KAIR)--The City of Lancaster has a new Mayor.

That's the key outcome of a special meeting held Monday by the Lancaster City Council.

Held mostly in executive session, the meeting resulted in the appointment of Ryan Hermreck as the City's new Mayor.

Council member Hermreck now fills the position left vacant, first by the resignation of Matthew Wilburn at the Council's March 12 meeting, and then that of appointed Mayor, Council Member Jake Wilburn, who resigned during Monday's special meeting, prior to Hermreck's appointment.

Following the selection of the Mayor, the Council then needed to decide replacements for the two, open seats on the board.

Selected to serve in the vacant City Council seats are Christian Pease, appointed to fill Hermreck's unexpired term as a Council Member, and Karl Callahan, appointed to fill the unexpired term of Jake Wilburn.

The special session lasted around 15-minutes, with the Council's next, regular meeting set for the evening of Tuesday, April 9, at 7:30.
