A new chapter for Kurth
Kurth ended his four-year term as mayor tonight in the company of his wife and children.
Addie and Daisy, Kurth's two daughters, were good sports while watching their father receive a handful of proclamations from Mayor Dennis Michael at the start of tonight's meeting.
Daisy, 11 months old, clapped out of turn and tried to steal her father's microphone. Addie, 2, started making friends, motioning to outgoing Supervisor Paul Biane and other officials to hold her.
"You're being upstaged," Councilwoman Diane Williams told Michael.
The new mayor told Kurth, "We thank you for your leadership, for your vision and for your calming ways in building this team."
Kurth said he felt very comfortable handing over the mayor's gavel to Michael.
"I have some commitments as you can see," Kurth said, referring to his new family. "But I won't be going far."
With that, Kurth left City Hall with Daisy on his shoulders. His Wednesday evenings will now be free.
