The day has come, Redwood City will decide on three measures on its ballot

The Voting Centers opened this Tuesday, November 8, general election day in the state of California, at 7:00 a.m., and will close until 8:00 p.m. And Redwood City residents will be able to decide on three local measures on their ballot.

There is still enough time to raise your voice and assert your right. That the weather does not prevent you from voting, put on rain boots and a jacket, and find out what these three local measures are about that will surely impact the city soon.

Proposals in Redwood City:

? Z measure. Amend Redwood City's Charter to align the Redwood City General Municipal Election date with the State General Election date, clarify the date by which Redwood City elections must be certified and City councilors must render oath, and would provide for the election of City councilors by district to comply with state law.

? Measure P.  I would amend the Redwood City Charter to shorten the mayor's term from two years to one, in order to allow more councilmembers to serve as mayors during their tenure on the City Council. 

? Measures. Improve local elementary and secondary schools by repairing and upgrading science, technology, engineering, arts, and math classrooms/labs; make security/protection enhancements; improve inadequate heating, cooling and electrical systems; construction and acquisition of sites/facilities. Authorizes $298 million in bonds at legal rates, collecting $24 for every $100,000 of your home's assessed value.
