The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday is scheduled to vote on a charter amendment to allow them to remove embattled Sheriff Christina Corpus from her position.
The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors, on Tuesday, voted unanimously to hold a special election that will put foundational change in the hands of county residents."We put this on the agenda because we recognize there are a lot of questions about why is this happening," said Dist. 3 Supervisor Noelia Corzo, to a sparsely attended meeting.The board approved the special election for Mar. 4, 2025.
Officials cited a violation of the Brown Act."It prohibits an employer from interfering with union matters, retaliation for union business and intimidation of the union," said DSA attorney Sean Currin.While political pressure for the sheriff to resign mounts, there was push-back from some members of the public at the mid-morning meeting. Some said Corpus, who is in her second year on the job, is doing a good job.
