City taxpayers will be hefting a higher cost than previously expected for a May 11 special election to replace council member Hany Fangary, who notified colleagues of his resignation on Christmas Eve.
To fill the seat vacated by Councilmember Hany Fangary, the Hermosa Beach City Council voted unanimously to hold an all-mail special election May 11.
The City Council at its Tuesday meeting had two other options: to appoint a new councilmember or to fill the vacancy with a special election on Nov. 2.
The newly elected councilmember will serve from May until Nov. 8, 2022 which would have been the end of Fangary s second term. Fangary resigned from the panel effective Jan. 4.
Details about the special election s filing deadlines for potential candidates were not yet available, said Mayor Justin Massey in a statement, but would soon be posted on the city s website.
