Episode Details

Fresno’s City Council is debating a bold ballot measure that could let mayors and council members serve up to three consecutive four-year terms—potentially letting Mayor Jerry Dyer run again in 2028 and serve up to twelve years. Supporters say it keeps experienced leaders in place and still caps power, while critics argue voters haven’t backed term extensions before and that the council should focus on redistricting or expanding representation instead. Even some council members who could benefit say they don’t want the change, and the labor council remains firmly against it, blaming career politicians for the city’s problems. The Chamber of Commerce hasn’t officially weighed in, but has backed Dyer. This is a heated debate with strong opinions on both sides.
