RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPOINT, in lieu of election, Emma Mendonsa and Katie Wadsworth to the Board of Trustees of Reclamation District 2122 (Winter Island) for terms of four years.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

BACKGROUND:

The Board of Supervisors received correspondence from Gallery & Barton, a law corporation representing Reclamation District 2122 (Winter Island). On behalf of the Reclamation District, Gallery & Barton has requested the Board of Supervisors to make appointments to fill two seats on the District's Board of Trustees in lieu of election. The District did not receive any nominations for the positions, other than from the incumbents. Pursuant to Water Code section 50741, the District will publish notice that the election has been canceled. The District has not received any petitions from landowners requesting an election be held. Therefore, the District requests that the incumbents be appointed, pursuant to Water Code sections 50740 - 50742.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The proposed nominees to the Board of Trustees for Reclamation District 2122 would not be approved, and the District’s Board of Trustees would have difficulty conducting business.
