Former Mayor Named to Garofalo’s Council Seat
The Huntington Beach City Council appointed a former mayor Saturday to fill the seat of Councilman Dave Garofalo, who resigned before pleading guilty last month to conflict-of-interest charges.
Grace Winchell, 64, who served on the council from 1986 to 1994, was among 35 candidates who applied for the position. The council seat is up for election in November.
