Each year, the Mayor of San Carlos delivers the State of the City address. The event, sponsored by the San Carlos Chamber of Commerce, is designed to give the Mayor a chance to talk to the community about his vision for San Carlos in the coming year. 

In 2011, Omar Ahmad changed the format of the State of the City address during his term as Mayor by offering local San Carlos businesses an opportunity to showcase their firms in a tabletop trade show prior to the event.  His State of the City presentation was videotaped and is presented below for your viewing.
