During a special meeting held Thursday, Nov. 14, the Mtn. View Board of Aldermen appointed Gary Yarber to the recently vacated seat of East Ward Alderman.
The announcement came Tuesday night during the board's regular monthly meeting. East Ward Alderman David Bauer had to step down because he is moving out of the ward.
Yarber, who took the vacated seat with a unanimous vote from the board, is no stranger to serving the community of Mountain View. Yarber has owned and operated Yarber Mortuary since 1996. He has served on numerous boards in the community, even serving as Mtn. View Chamber of Commerce President.
"I'm excited to be a part of the city council of Mountain View," Yarber said about his appointment. "I just want to work together. I want to make the very best decisions for Mountain View that we can. Hopefully, we can get these things worked out that we've been trying to deal with and move forward and make things better."
