City of Burlingame

Burlingame City Council, District 1

This person would hold one of Burlingame's five district-elected City Council seats. They vote on city ordinances, the budget, and land use for this San Mateo County city of about 31,400 residents. The term is four years. The Council selects a Mayor and Vice Mayor from among its own members each year rather than voters choosing either office directly.

Only one candidate qualified for this seat. Vice Mayor Andrea Pappajohn is a sustainability and climate action professional. She has represented District 1 since Burlingame moved to by-district elections. She is unopposed. This contest is settled, so your vote here does not change the outcome.

This person holds one of Burlingame's five district-elected City Council seats. They vote on city ordinances, the budget, and land use for this San Mateo County city of about 31,400 residents. The term is four years. The Council selects a Mayor and Vice Mayor from among its own members each year -- Pappajohn currently holds the Vice Mayor's chair -- rather than voters choosing either office directly.

With no opponent, the useful question is not who to choose but what's known about the officeholder and what to watch next. An unopposed return means accountability for this seat over the next four years runs through public records and the next election rather than through this ballot.

Andrea Pappajohn

Andrea Pappajohn is the sitting Vice Mayor and a sustainability professional. She led development of Burlingame's 2030 Climate Action Plan. She chairs the city's Airport Land Use Commission and Economic Development Subcommittee.
