About us

San Mateo is a city of approximately 100,000 residents, strategically located midway between San Francisco and San Jose, and is within the Silicon Valley.

The community values its historic and new residential neighborhoods and recently approved a major new Transit Oriented Development that will add 1,500 new homes, 300,000 square feet of new retail and as much as 1.5 million square feet of commercial office space. The City organization has a culture of innovation, collaboration and strong customer service, while implementing the City Manager’s initiative of a High Performing Organization. The City’s annual budget is $130 million and is staffed by over 540 full time employees. The City is continually evaluating new and innovative ways of providing high quality services to its residents while acknowledging the competing demands for the limited funds available.

    We had the pleasure of celebrating Women’s Equality Day today at City Hall with a event organized by our internal DEI Committee. Our patio was filled with joy as we snacked on cookies and captured a few special moments with some of the incredible women in our organization. 📸✨ This day marks the adoption of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920, granting women the right to vote. A big thank you to everyone who joined us and made the event memorable. Cheers to the amazing women who make our community shine. Let's continue to honor and uplift each other every day!
