RECOMMENDATION(S):

DECLARE the candidates, listed on the attached reports, "Appointed-in-Lieu of Election" or "Appointed" at the November 8, 2016 Presidential General Election.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

BACKGROUND:

Elections Code 10515 requires that candidates who file for an office for which the number of candidates is equal to or less than the number required to be elected, be "Appointed-in-Lieu of Election" by the Board of Supervisors as if they were elected. Candidates that are recommended by the respective Districts, are "Appointed" by the Board when there are an insufficient number of candidates to fill the number of vacancies for the election.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

These candidates will not be sworn in as provided by law.
