City Council passed a resolution calling for a special election to fill the vacancy in District 2 and the vacancy for mayor created by the most recent recall election.

Mayor Shen Thao previously represented the city as mayor but left following his recall in last year’s election.

Former city council member Nikki Fortunato Bas was elected to the county board of supervisors leaving District 2 vacant.

The special election to fill these vacancies will be held April 15.
