Why This Vote Matters

The council appointed Kyra Worthy to fill a vacant public safety representative seat on the Personnel Board, which reviews city employee policies and workplace issues. Worthy was selected from three candidates who had previously run in a 2018 election for this specific position. The appointment passed with broad support in a 5-1 vote, with only Councilmember Butt dissenting and Councilmember Choi absent. This marks an unusual departure for Butt, who had previously voted in favor of all 73 appointments that came before the council.
