Item 15
Meeting Date__ 7/2I/81
ITEM TITLE: Resolution/~Ds~ Calling and giving notice of a Municipal Election
to be held on November 3, 1981 for the office of Mayor and for the
submission of a Measure
SUBMITTED BY: City Clerk (4/5ths Vote: Yes No X )
At the meeting of July 7, 1981, the City Council approved submittal
of a Measure to be placed on the ballot allowing for an all-mail
ballot election as determined by the City Council. The Measure, as
written, did not specifically exclude the elections for the Mayor
or Councilmen; therefore, the Council, at the meeting of July 14,
asked that the Measure be re-written.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the revised Resolution.
DISCUSSION:
The previous Measure, as written, stated "...authorizing...the use
of mailed ballots...at the descretion of the City Council..."
This would have given the Council the descretion to call an all-mail
election for any type of election: initiative, referendum, etc., or
for the offices of Mayor or Council.
As now re-drafted, the Measure, if approved by the electorate, would
allow the Council the descretionary power only for elections other
then those for Councilmembers or Mayor. The language is now
specific and there should be no question in the minds of the voters
as to the purpose of the Measure.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not known at this time. The estimate given by the
Registrar of Voters is approximately $7,500.
