1996
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
AGREE to CO-SPONSOR AB 3472 by the Assembly Local Government Committee,
which contains one proposal submitted by Contra Costa County, to require that
ballots for reclamation district elections be forwarded to the County Clerk, rather than
to the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors.
BACKGROUND:
The 1996 Legislative Program approved by the Board of Supervisors includes a
proposal submitted by the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors. Under current law, the
ballots and other election materials for all elections are the property of the County
Clerk or other elections official. The exception to this is reclamation district elections
where the law, for some inexplicable reason, requires that the ballots be forwarded
to the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors for storage. Since the Clerk of the Board
stores no other election ballots and has no special facilities for this storage, it was
suggested that the law pertaining to reclamation district elections be made parallel
to other elections.
The Assembly Local Government Committee generally authors a local government
clean-up bill each year. The Committee has agreed to include the provision
pertaining to reclamation district election in the 1996 local government clean-up bill,
AB 3472.
