The Town of Colma is a municipal government located in Colma, California. It operates as a government administration with a five-member City Council that establishes local policy and planning direction, supported by a professional staff. The town presents a distinctive built environment, with commercial blocks designed around Spanish-Mediterranean motifs and a mix of historic and modern facilities, including a restored museum and railroad depot housed near its 5,500 square foot Community Center and a modern police station adjacent to the historic Town Hall. Covering about two square miles, Colma benefits from a relatively diverse tax base supported by two shopping centers, a notable collection of car dealerships, and a cardroom; nearby BART stations provide regional access. The town emphasizes accessible municipal services for residents and local businesses, with a monthly newsletter that informs readers about the City Council agenda, events, and local matters. Colma supports a low-profile yet active government approach aimed at balancing a healthy business climate with constructive resident relations and a modern infrastructure.
