The Lafayette City Council has appointed John McCormick to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Council Member Teresa Gerringer.
Seven applications from Glenn R. Cass, Stella Wotherspoon, Shane Reisman, Janet Shahan, Alison Mary Collins, Vincent Salimi, and McCormick were received, and all applicants were interviewed by the City Council during a special meeting on Jan. 29. After careful consideration, the council unanimously selected John McCormick to fill the vacancy and serve on the council until the next regularly scheduled municipal election in November 2024.
McCormick has been a resident of Lafayette for more than 30 years and raised two children here. He is the co-owner of a local music store, Lamorinda Music, which he and his wife founded in 2009. He has served on the city's Planning Commission since 2023 and is chair of the City's Land Acknowledgment Task Force.
John currently serves on the board of directors for both the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce and the Park Theater Trust. In 2021, he was honored as the Lafayette Business Person of the Year.
John has a bachelor's degree in engineering from UC Berkeley. He worked in the software industry until his retirement in 2017. John recently received his master's degree in history from Harvard. He wrote a book titled "Chinese in Napa Valley" which was released in 2023.
