During the Dec. 14 Solvang City Council meeting, the former council accepted the results of the Nov. 3 election and welcomed newly elected Councilmembers Mark Infanti, Claudia Orona, and Mayor Charlie Uhrig.
The new council, save for Councilmembers Robert Clarke and Jim Thomas, came with a different take on the former council’s decision to continue abiding by the state’s purple tier safety guidelines and dismiss the state’s increased restrictions.
