RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE election consolidation requests from jurisdictions that have filed resolutions with the County-Clerk Recorder, Elections Division, to place measures on the March 3, 2020 Primary Election ballot, and AUTHORIZE the County-Clerk Recorder to conduct elections for: Antioch Unified School District Facilities Improvement District, Lafayette School District, Moraga School District, West Contra Costa School District, Pleasant Hill Recreation and Park District, and the Town of Danville.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no direct cost to the County. Any additional cost incurred by the Elections Division will be recovered from each City, School and Special District.

BACKGROUND:

Election Code 10400 et seq. requires jurisdictions wishing to consolidate an election with a statewide election to submit a resolution to the Board of Supervisors requesting consolidation. The Board may approve or not approve the request. By granting these requests, the Board authorizes the County Elections Division to consolidate and conduct the election on behalf of the jurisdictions in conjunction with the March 3, 2020 Primary Election. Records indicate that entities requesting consolidation have each filed the required resolution with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors.

The Board of Supervisors previously approved Contra Costa Transportation Authority's request to consolidate on November 19, 2019.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Not approving the requests will require each entity to conduct its own election.
