On March
22, 2022, the San Bruno City Council completed its sixth and final
public hearing on the district formation process. Ordinance 1907 was
adopted, and the City Council established the City’s first district map
for City Council elections. The Ordinance implemented by-district
elections of four City Council Members beginning in November
2022.
The City of San Bruno's first by-district election began with
representatives for Districts 1 and 4 during the November 2022
election. The remaining two districts (2 and 3) will be up for election
in November 2024. Each district Council Member will serve a
four-year term and must live in their respective district.
The remaining Council Member, the Mayor, continues to be elected every two years. This structure was established by Measure F in 1977 and is not affected by the adoption of a 4-district map. Thus, the November 2024 ballot will also include the election of a Mayor for the next two years.

of the current district map, visit districtingsanbruno.org.
The next municipal election will be held on November 5, 2024 for the offices of Mayor (citywide) and City Council Districts 2 and 3. This will be the first election where voters will select two offices “by district” for Districts 2 and 3 representation. Check your district using the “Adopted Council District” map above.
Candidates running for a Council District seat must reside and be registered to vote in the respective district. This requirement also applies to those who sign a candidate’s nomination petition. For information on how to run for City Council please review the City's Candidate Manual for Officer Election.
