Close to 100 people filled the village hall and spilled into the hallway on Wednesday, April 22, as Saddle Rock’s new administration was sworn in, marking a transition of power following a chaotic and closely watched election.
The large turnout, including residents, family members and even two police officers, reflected heightened community interest after a historic election cycle. The meeting opened with a review of election results, drawing cheers from the crowd, before newly elected Mayor Kambiz “Eli” Akhavan, a tax and estate planning attorney, and trustees took their oaths of office.
