SUMMARY:  On November 6, 2018, an election is scheduled for directors in voter divisions 1, and 2.   The Monterey County Elections Department requires that a resolution calling for the November 6 election be adopted by the Board of Directors and submitted no later than July 4, 2018.  The proposed Resolution No. 2018-07 is attached as Exhibit 2-A.

 

The resolution calls the election; requests that it be consolidated with other elections in Divisions 1 and 2; and states the District will pay its portion of elections costs in the affected voter divisions.  The General Manager will consult with the Elections Department on development of a service agreement for payment of the elections costs.  The agreement will be submitted for Board approval at the June 18, 2018 Board meeting.  

 

RECOMMENDATION:  The Board of Directors adopt Resolution No. 2018-07, attached as Exhibit 2-A, calling for an election in voter divisions 1 and 2. 

 

IMPACT ON STAFF/RESOURCES:  An amount necessary to cover the cost of this District election will be included under the Election Expenses category in the Fiscal Year 2018-2019 budget, which is scheduled to be adopted on June 18, 2018. As an example of previous election costs, the charge for the 2013 election in Voter Divisions 1 and 2 was $54,000.
