City Councilman Steve Martin was sworn in as West Hollywood's mayor and Councilman John Heilman was named mayor pro tem.
Lt. Gov. Gray Davis, a friend of Martin and longtime West Hollywood resident, administered the oath of office.
"It's an exciting time to be mayor of West Hollywood with our economy surging and with so many cutting-edge businesses opening their doors within our cities," said Martin, a family law attorney and long time gay rights activist.
