Carol Bonner, City Clerk 
Carol Bonner is the City Clerk for the City of San Bruno. City Clerks are either elected or appointed in California. San Bruno has had an elected City Clerk since its incorporation as a City on December 23, 1914. The City Clerk's responsibilities are mandated by State law and local ordinance and include preparing City Council agenda packets and minutes, maintaining and documenting Council actions, administering local elections, implementing Political Reform Act requirements, processing claims under City's self-insurance program, and regulating permits, such as bingo, nonprofit solicitation and handbills. However, in San Bruno the City Clerk's most important function is to promote openness in government by serving the people's needs promptly, efficiently and cheerfully.
