RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPOINT in lieu of election Richard Kraemer and Richard Kent to serve on the Board of Trustees of Reclamation District 799 (Hotchkiss Tract) for a term of four years, commencing December 2019 and concluding December 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None

BACKGROUND:

The Board of Supervisors received correspondence from Dina Holder, District Secretary for Reclamation District 799, requesting appointment to the Board of Trustees of the District in lieu of elections. Ms. Holder reports that the Board of Trustees of the District, at its regular meeting on July 25, 2019, adopted a resolution to call for an all mailed ballot election to fill two four-year terms that are set to expire in December 2019. Subsequent to posting the notice calling for nominations, the District received only two filing petitions, from Richard Kraemer and Richard Kent. Therefore, the District election scheduled for November 12, 2019 is uncontested and no election will be conducted.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

At this time, the District respectfully requests that the Board of Supervisors appoint Richard Kraemer and Richard Kent to four-year terms on the Board of Trustees of Reclamation District 799. The terms will commence in December 2019 and conclude in December 2023.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The proposed nominees to the Board of Trustees for Reclamation District 799 (Hotchkiss Tract) would not be approved, which may hinder the Board of Trustees in achieving a quorum and conducting the District's business.
