Shall an ordinance be adopted to establish term limits for members of the City Council limiting them to two (2), four (4) year consecutive terms, with a hiatus of two (2) years before being eligible to hold office again as a member of the City Council?

Impartial Analysis from Steven L. Dorsey,
City Attorney
State law currently provides that members of the San Marino City Council can serve an unlimited number of consecutive terms unless the voters approve an initiative measure imposing term limits. The San Marino City Council unanimously placed Measure P on the ballot to limit members of the City Council to two consecutive terms of office.

Consistent with State law, Measure P, if adopted, will apply to terms commencing after November 8, 2011. Thus, those persons elected at the November 8, 2011, election and all subsequent elections will be permitted to serve only two consecutive terms. For purposes of the term limits, a term will be two years or more.
