The election on Nov. 6 will determine the new membership of governing boards for the Portola Valley School District, the Los Trancos Water District and the Menlo Park Fire Protection District.

Voters in the Menlo Park fire district, which includes Menlo Park, Atherton, East Palo Alto and nearby unincorporated neighborhoods, will also weigh in on whether to increase the district’s spending limit to $40 million from the current $25 million starting in 2011. The measure would not affect the level of property taxes levied in the district.

Meanwhile in Woodside, there is a Town Council election but with four candidates running for the four open seats.

Registered voters who are not voting by mail and need to know where to vote in person have three options for finding their polling place: on the back of the sample ballot recently sent in the mail, by calling the Elections Office at 312-5222, or online at www.shapethefuture.org.
