WaGa CO CIL AGENDA REPORT M9
FROM: Pam Voges, LIN
Clerk
SUBJECT:
Special Municipal Election Expenses of June 7, 1988.
CAO RECOMMENDATION:
Accept report and order filed.
BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to Chapter 2.40 of the Municipal Code entitled Election Campaign
Regulations" , a detailed report of all election expenses shall be
submitted to the Council for its review as stated below.
"2. Obtaining Additional Help or Services. The City Clerk is
authorized and directed to hire part-time help, contract for
services, and purchase supplies as the City Clerk deems necessary
to carry out the additional duties imposed on the City Clerk's office
by this chapter. Within seventy-five days after each election, the
City Clerk shall provide the Council with a detailed report of the
direct and indirect labor, materials and other costs incurred by the
City Clerk's office in performing such additional duties. "
Therefore, as required, attached is the cost breakdown of the city's
election-related expenses for the June 7, 1988 election.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$30,300 was budgeted in the 87/88 Elections A/C #001-2026. This was
for all direct and indirect election-related expenditures for the year
and includes the expenses of the November 8, 1988 election of $24,470.
As the June, 1988 election was unanticipated, a mid-year budget
appropriation may be required in December to cover this cost. The
County's new election billing has significantly increased the cost of
an off election year as all jurisdictions are equally charged
according to the number of electorate who voted in the last election.
Using this same formula, the City's Regular Municipal Election should
be somewhat less expensive.
RECOMMENDATION:
Accept report and order filed.
