Liz Lempert was sworn in Tuesday as the mayor of Princeton on the day that the two communities officially became one.
Ms. Lempert, joined by her husband and the couple’s two daughters, took the oath of oath from Richard Woodbridge, the man she beat in November’s mayoral race.
Afterward, the six-member council randomly drew slips of paper out of a large hat to determine how long their terms will be.
Council members Lance Liverman and Heather H. Howard have three-year-terms, council President Bernard Miller and Councilwoman Jo Butler drew two-year terms and council members Jenny Crumiller and Patrick Simon drew one-year terms.
Earlier in the day, officials and the public gathered for a celebration of the historic merger of the two Princetons.
