Lorie Zapf (pronounced "Zaff") is an American elected official in San Diego, California. She serves as a San Diego City Council member representing City Council District 2. She was first elected to office in November 2010 serving District 6, but switched districts in 2014 due to redistricting.[2] She is a Republican, although city council positions are officially nonpartisan per California state law.

When she was elected to District 6 in 2010, it included the neighborhoods of Bay Ho, Bay Park, Clairemont Mesa, Fashion Valley, Kearny Mesa, Linda Vista, Mission Valley, North Clairemont, and Serra Mesa.[3] Her home in Bay Ho, was moved to District 2 in the 2011 redistricting. She ran for the vacant District 2 seat under the new borders in 2014[4] and won election to that seat in the June primary, by getting more than 50% of the vote (53.65%).[5] The other neighborhoods in the new District 2 included Bay Park, Morena, Midway/North Bay, Mission Beach, Ocean Beach, Pacific Beach, and Point Loma.[6]

On the City Council she chairs the Land Use and Housing Committee and is vice chair of the Public Safety and Neighborhood Services Committee. She also serves on the Natural Resources and Culture Committee.[7]
