Elections
The City of Lemon Grove is a General Law City governed by a five (5) member City Council. A Mayor and four members of the City Council are elected to serve 4-year terms. The Mayor and City Council serve Citywide and are not restricted to Districts due to the size of our City. The City consolidates Elections with the County of San Diego and are generally held with the Statewide General Elections held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November of even-numbered years. As of 2020, the State of California changed the date of the Primary Elections from June to March, thereby, if the City has a need to be included on the ballot such as a Special Election, the City will consolidate with the Statewide Primary Municipal Election.
