EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Elections Code Section 10515 requires the Registrar of Voters to submit a certificate of facts to the Board of Supervisors when the number of persons who have filed a Declaration of Candidacy for director does not exceed the number of offices of director to be filled at a general district election. To comply with Section 10515, I am presenting a resolution to your Board with the names of persons who filed a Declaration of Candidacy for the November 7, 2017 General District Election for each of the Special Districts that are not required to hold an election because there are no more nominees than there are vacancies. Section 10515 also states that if no person has filed a Declaration of Candidacy for any office, the Board of Supervisors shall appoint any person to the office who is qualified on the date when the election would have been held.
