A power shift, a pandemic and San Jose’s two new councilmembers [Mercury News]
Jan. 2 It’s a new era in San Jose City Hall.
For the first time in more than a decade, the city’s most powerful lawmaking body is controlled by a labor-backed majority. And on top of that, two of the most conservative members of the council have been replaced by those who lean more to the left.
While it has yet to be seen how the new dynamic will alter the city’s direction on contentious issues from the extent of fee waivers given to developers to the amount of power the mayor should hold, San Jose’s two new newest councilmembers are ready to get to work.
