Derica Escamilla appointed to Lynnwood City Council

LYNNWOOD—The Lynnwood City Council, on Wednesday, July 10, appointed Almaderica “Derica” Escamilla to the Lynnwood City Council. Position No.1 was vacated in May of this year due to the resignation of Council Member Shirley Sutton.

The Council interviewed their top candidates over two special meetings this week, and this evening voted to select the appointee. During the Monday, July 15, Work Session, she will take her Oath of Office and be seated immediately.

The City would like to thank all of the applicants for their willingness to serve the community in this capacity.

Derica will be the second Latina to serve on the council following the 2019 election victory of Julieta Altamirano-Crosby.
