SUBJECT: ESTABLISHMENT OF THE ELECTIONS CLEARING TRUST FUND `'y'�
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller to establish the Elections Clearing Trust Fund #832600
for use by the Clerk-Recorder in collecting and disbursing campaign funds and for other
related transactions.
BACKGROUND:
The Clerk-Recorder and the Superior Court presently share Trust Fund #830400 because the
majority of transactions processed through this fund related to court business. In light of the
trial court coordination currently occurring in this County which prescribes a separation of
the Clerk-Recorder from the Superior Court, it is deemed appropriate by the County
Administrator and the Auditor-Controller to establish a new, separate trust fund to be used
exclusively for Clerk-Recorder business which includes refunds on overpayments and
campaign refunds. Once the Clerk-Recorder's transition to the new trust fund is
accomplished, the existing Trust Fund #830400 shall be used solely by the Superior Court.
