About This Guide

The District 2 Guide is intended to help residents better understand the issues, projects, and priorities affecting our neighborhoods.

Rather than duplicating information already available on the City of San Rafael website, this guide provides context, highlights opportunities for community participation, and links directly to official City webpages for agendas, project updates, staff reports, and additional information.

My goal is simple: make it easier for District 2 residents to stay informed and engaged.
