BACKGROUND:
The Board of Supervisors has received correspondence from Dante J. Nomellini, Jr., Secretary and Attorney for Reclamation District 2117 (Coney Island) requesting appointment to the Board of Trustees in lieu of elections. Mr. Nomellini has respectfully requested that the Board of Supervisors make the appointment in lieu of elections. Correspondence from the firm specifies that pursuant to notice calling for nomination petitions for one vacancy on the Board of Trustees, the District received one nomination petition from Sandy Speckman Kiefer.

At this time the District respectfully requests that the Board of Supervisors appoint nominee Sandy Speckman Kiefer for the term ending December, 2021 to serve on the Board of Trustees for Reclamation District 2117 (Coney Island).
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The proposed nominees to Reclamation District 2117 would not be approved.
