SUMMARY:
On November 3, 2009, the District is scheduled to conduct an election
for directors in voter divisions 1 and 2.
The Monterey County Elections Department requires that a resolution
calling for the November 3 election be adopted by the Board of Directors no
later than July 1, 2009.
The Elections Department has estimated
that the cost to conduct the election could be $75,408, depending on the actual
number of entities that decide to consolidate ballot measures for the November
3, 2009 election date. The Board will be
asked to authorize funding for the election at the June 15, 2009 meeting.
RECOMMENDATION: The Board of Directors adopt the resolution
attached as Exhibit 4-A, calling
for an election in voter divisions 1 and 2 on November 3, 2009.
BACKGROUND: An
election in voter divisions 1 and 2 was last conducted in November 2005. The
four-year term of directors elected in 2005 expires at the end of 2009.
IMPACT
ON STAFF/RESOURCES: An amount necessary to cover the cost of
this District election will be included in the Fiscal Year 2009-10 proposed
budget, which is scheduled to be reviewed in a Board Special Meeting/Workshop
on May 28, 2009.
