Executive Summary:
An election is scheduled for November 5, 2019, to elect directors to numerous special districts. In those districts in which the number of nominees is equal to or less than the number of offices to be filled, Elections Code Section 10515 provides for appointment of the nominees by the Board of Supervisors, rather than requiring an election. A board item for the districts with a qualifying number of candidates that are required to go to election is presented separately.
Discussion:
The attached resolution includes the names of the candidates who have qualified for appointment to their respective districts pursuant to the above-stated provision of state law. Further, Elections Code §10515 requires that these appointments be made by the Board of Supervisors, as the supervising authority, prior to December 2, 2019. Each person so appointed shall qualify, take office, and serve exactly as if elected at a general district election for such office.
For those offices for which no nominations were made the law provides that the Board of Supervisors appoint any person who is qualified to hold the office as of November 5, 2019, and fill the vacancies no later than December 2, 2019. Separate memos to the Clerk of the Board and to the Supervisors will list the vacant positions and the necessary qualifications for appointment. It will be incumbent upon the Board to identify qualified candidates and make the necessary appointments to fill the vacant seats. The appointments will be made by the Board of Supervisors at a separate meeting, following their normal appointment procedures.
Upon adoption of this resolution the Registrar of Voters Office will issue certificates of election to the respective nominees.
