ADOPT Ordinance No. 2015-09, authorizing the County Elections Official to contract for the use of real property as
a polling place for any election.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
BACKGROUND:
From time to time, it is necessary for the County Elections Official (the County Clerk-Recorder-Registrar of Voters)
to enter into a written agreement to use real property as a polling place for an election. Ordinance No. 2015-09
amends Ordinance Code Chapter 1108-10 to authorize the Elections Official to contract for the use of real property as
a polling place for any election by license or use agreement.
Ordinance No. 2015-09 is authorized by Government Code section 25350.51. This statute allows the Board of
Supervisors to delegate to appropriate County officers the authority to obtain the use of real property for the County
by lease or license under specified conditions. Ordinance Code Chapter 1108-10 already authorizes the Public Works
Director to lease real lease real property for use by the County or obtain the use of real property for the County by
license, as long as the term of the lease or license does not exceed five years and the rental under the lease or license
does not exceed $7,500 per month. Ordinance Code Chapter 1108-10 also sets forth the procedures and requirements
that must be followed when an agreement is executed by a County officer under the ordinance. The same limitations
and procedures would apply to real property agreements signed by the Elections Official.
