Councilor Rose of Cathedral Square sponsored five pieces of legislation and Councilor Lathalia Valeriel of Old Town sponsored one piece of legislation. Vaerien Greyson was elected to a second term as Lord Mayor of Stormwind City by the Stormwind House of Nobles.

Councilor Duskbinder resigned during the term, and Lil Smith was elected to succeed her as councilor for the Harbor and Park, though his election victory was questioned by four of the six remaining councilors due to concerns of voter fraud. Councilor Smith later resigned during the term.

## Fourth Session (633 KY)

The fourth session of the Stormwind City Council began on April 30, 2021 and continues into the present day. This was the first session to feature a commoner Mayor of Stormwind City, abolishing the previous position of Lord Mayor of Stormwind City, which was elected by the Stormwind House of Nobles, making it the first session to have a city-wide vote for mayor. Subsequently, this also marked the first a Lord High Alderman served on the City Council. This was also the first session to feature two candidates who were disqualified, Bonnie "Bunnyguts" Ivan and Finnegan Quill; both were disqualified for having criminal arrest records, though Quill's campaign was later reinstated. Xavier Morgan was removed from his position as Patrician of Stormwind City by Lord High Steward Maxen Montclair and replaced by his deputy, Remona Thane, though she resigned shortly after her appointment so as to not complicate any amendment to the Stormwind City Charter to abolish the position of patrician, which was supported by Montclair.
