RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPOINT, in lieu of election, James Price, Arthur John Hanson, and Walter Pierce to serve on the Board of Trustees of Reclamation District 799 (Hotchkiss Tract) each for terms of four years, commencing December 3, 2021 and concluding December 4, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

BACKGROUND:

The Board of Supervisors received correspondence from Dina Holder, District Secretary for Reclamation District 799, requesting appointments 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 29, 2021, adopted a resolution to call for an all-mailed ballot election to fill three four-year terms that are set to expire in December 2021. Subsequent to posting the notice calling for nominations, the District received only three filing petitions, from James Price, Arthur John Hanson, and Walter Pierce. Therefore, the District election scheduled for November 9, 2021 is uncontested and no election will be conducted. At this time, the District respectfully requests that the Board of Supervisors appoint James Price, Arthur John Hanson, and Walter Pierce each to four-year terms on the Board of Trustees of Reclamation District 799. The terms will commence on December 3, 2021 and conclude on December 4, 2025.

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.
