Amy Worth has been elected by the Orinda City Council as Mayor for 2018. She will be assisted by Vice Mayor Inga Miller. The election went smoothly, with only one nominee for each office; both candidates were elected unanimously at the Dec. 5 council meeting. Worth was nominated by Council Member Dean Orr and Miller was nominated by outgoing Mayor Eve Phillips.
Worth brings a great deal of experience to the job, having served as mayor in 2000 and 2005. She has served four terms on the city council since first being elected in November 1998, and was outgoing Mayor Eve Phillips' vice mayor. Worth is a Cal graduate, so the rallying cry, "Go Bears!" will likely continue to be heard at council meetings.
Inga Miller was elected to the Orinda City Council in November 2016. Miller, who was raised in Orinda and has lived here most of her life, previously served on the Parks and Recreation Commission from 2011-13. Miller attended Miramonte High School at the same time as Phillips, and both competed in cross country and track events there. In addition to her work as a real estate attorney, Miller previously was employed as a journalist.
Mayor Worth and Vice Mayor Miller will be profiled in an upcoming edition of the Lamorinda Weekly.
