Both will serve one-year terms.
Long-time Cupertino City Councilmember Liang Chao is the city’s new mayor, with Councilmember Kitty Moore now serving as vice mayor after winning unanimous approval by their colleagues.
Addressing the council and residents Thursday, Chao said she is hopeful that she, Wang and Moore can restore the city’s democratic process — which Chao asserted was recently undermined by a lack of transparency and community engagement. Chao, who first joined the council in 2018, served as vice mayor in 2019 and 2021. During her tenure, Chao has been a part of council decisions including the launch of a city-wide shuttle service and oversaw the closing of the Cupertino-based Lehigh Cement plant and the environmental cleanup of Vallco.
