Santa Clara mayor may have violated city rules serving another term - San Jose Spotlight
Briefly

Councilmember Raj Chahal stated, "If something's not (legal) as per the charter, we need to fix that thing, and it should be actionable." This reflects the concerns regarding Gillmor's eligibility for reelection.
The city charter reads, "No person elected as Mayor shall be eligible to serve, or serve, more than two (2) full terms; but such service prior to December 1, 2016, shall not disqualify any person from further service as Mayor." This raises questions about Gillmor's reelection.
Based on the city charter language, the time Gillmor served as the appointed mayor from Dec. 1, 2016, to Dec. 18, 2018, exceeds two years and counts as a full term.
