Two Santee City Council seats and a proposed local sales tax increase will appear on the ballot, according to East County Magazine. This article summarizes third-party reporting and city election details; it does not compare, assess, rank or recommend any candidate or ballot position.

East County Magazine reported that Rob McNelis is running for the District 1 seat and Ronn Hall is running for the District 2 seat. The same report identified Matthew Rascon as the District 1 challenger and Eddie Vandiver as the District 2 challenger.

Santee voters will also consider Measure Y, a proposed 1 percent local sales tax increase. East County Magazine reported that the measure would raise Santee's rate from 7.75 percent to 8.75 percent for 10 years and is projected to generate about $140 million.

The source report said the money is intended for unfunded city needs that include streets, sidewalks, parks, public facilities, aging infrastructure, fire protection, paramedic response and fire station work. For Santee residents, the practical next step is to review official city election materials and county voter information before ballots go out.
