  • Measure T, Building Heights in the City of San Mateo - The SMGOP took an OPPOSE or NO position

    The reason we took a position on Measure T was the proponent and opposition requested endorsement and both sides submitted arguments and rebuttals. Speakers from both sides presented to the SMGOP meeting on September 12, 2024. A motion was made to take a NO position on Measure T. The vote was 0–Support, 2-Neutral, 17-Oppose, and 3 abstentions.

    To receive an endorsement on measures requires a 2/3s vote of members present and voting.

    No on Measure T Website
