The city of Federal Way invites the public to its Jan. 7 meeting, to be part of the swearing in of Mayor Jim Ferrell and council members Jeanne Burbidge, Kelly Maloney and Martin Moore.

The meeting begins at 7 p.m. and will be held in Council Chambers at City Hall (33325 Eighth Ave. S.). The city clerk officially swore in the trio on Monday before their terms officially start on Jan. 1, 2014. But the city is having this small ceremony to “provide the public an opportunity to participate,” according to the city.

Ferrell was elected to a four-year term that runs until Dec. 31, 2017. The Council will appoint a replacement to serve the remainder of his term for his vacant position, which runs until Dec. 31, 2015.
