The Millcreek City Council will look pretty similar come 2026. 

Millcreek opted for continuity in the November elections as incumbents Thom DeSirant (District 2) and Bev Uipi (District 4) were reelected. 

DeSirant defeated challenger Angie Gray with 59% of the vote to earn a second term.

 “This would not have been possible without the incredible support of our community, and I’m honored to keep representing you,” DeSirant wrote on his campaign website. 

Uipi won in a landslide earning 82% of the vote to beat Connor Jett Gale for a fourth term. 

“I want to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who supported me during this reelection race: family, friends, donors, my city council colleagues, our amazing city staff responding to D4 residents, those who endorsed, my campaign team, and most importantly, the residents of Millcreek District 4,” she wrote on her campaign website. 

She added “My opponent ran a kind race and reached out after election results were posted with class and eagerness to support Millcreek.”

The two will take their oath of office in early January. 

Millcreek City Council meetings will take a slightly different look going forward as District 3’s Cheri Jackson was selected by the current council to fill the mayoral seat as Jeff Silvestrini retires. 

A new District 3 councilmember will be appointed to fill Jackson’s seat.
