Also on the ballot are several statewide measures, at least one countywide measure, and one City of Piedmont measure.
Piedmont’s Ballot Measure GG
The Piedmont City Council placed Measure GG on the ballot. This measure modifies the City Charter in two ways. First, it would move the date of the City’s General Municipal Election from February to November. Second, it would change when the Piedmont Unified School District Board of Education annually elects its President and Vice President.
