Lakewood Swears In 3 City Councilpersons

LAKEWOOD, OH — Lakewood City Council saw three members sworn-in during Monday's regular meeting.

New Lakewood Municipal Court Judge Tess Neff oversaw the ceremony, welcoming back councilpersons Tom Bullock, Sarah Kepple and Tristan Rader. All three are at-large councilpersons.

"Congratulations councilmembers and best wishes as you continue to serve the citizens of Lakewood," the city of Lakewood said on its website and on social media.

Lakewood's Ward 1 council seat is currently vacant after Neff, who held the seat, won the contest to become the city's municipal judge.
