City of Alameda · Alameda County · November 3, 2026
The question on your ballot
Proposed City Charter Amendment Ballot Measure Shall the measure amending Section 3-10 of the City Charter to change sales or leases of City real property exceeding one year to be approved by resolution rather than by ordinance and to reduce the City Council approval threshold from supermajority (four affirmative votes) to simple majority (three affirmative votes) for leases of City real property not exceeding ten years be adopted?
In plain language
Measure N would change part of the City of Alameda's Charter. This part covers selling or leasing city property. A YES vote lets the city approve property sales or long-term leases with a simple resolution. This applies to leases over one year, and skips the need for a full ordinance. It also lowers the City Council votes needed for leases of ten years or less, from four votes to three. A NO vote keeps the current rules. Those rules require an ordinance and four Council votes.
