Lopez chosen as Cave Creek vice mayor
by Brian DiTullio

CAVE CREEK – Councilman Gil Lopez was chosen by a unanimous vote Monday as Cave Creek’s new vice mayor.

Lopez was nominated for the post by Councilman and former Vice Mayor Dick Esser.

“I think his record speaks for itself,” said Esser. “Personally, I think the next two years will serve to shape the future of Cave Creek for quite some time.”

No other nominations were put forward and, there being no discussion, the roll was called.

The council meeting adjourned immediately after the vote, and those in attendance were invited to stay for refreshments.
 

Lopez told The Desert Advocate after the meeting he is pleased with the vote of confidence from the council and that he is looking forward to working with the other members for the next two years.

“It’s a privilege to serve the town in any capacity,” said Lopez.
