The question on your ballot

Shall Section 1309 of the City Charter be amended to allow the City Council to adopt an ordinance giving the City more options for delivery of public works construction projects by authorizing use of any purchasing or contracting method allowed by California law to select contractors for such projects, and to make clarifying changes to the wording of Section 1309 that do not alter the meaning of the section?

In plain language

Measure G is a Sunnyvale city measure. It is about public works contracts. A YES vote changes Section 1309 of the City Charter. It lets the City Council pass a law allowing more contracting methods. The city could use any method allowed under California law. This gives the city more options to choose contractors. The measure also makes small wording changes. These changes do not alter the section's meaning. A NO vote keeps the current charter rules for public works contracting.
