Memorandum
To: Board of Directors
From: Peter Holzmeister
Date: February 2, 2007
Subject: Casting a ballot for LAFCo special district member
Why this matter is before the Board: This matter involves casting a ballot for special
district representative on Nevada County LAFCo. Only the Board can perform that task.
History: The LAFCo commission is comprised of two members from the county
supervisors, two members appointed by the cities in Nevada County, one member
representing the general public and two members appointed by the special districts in the
county. There are also alternate members representing those same categories. When a
vacancy occurs in one of the special district positions on the LAFCo Board, the special
districts are asked to nominate a person to fill the vacancy. After the nominations are
received by LAFCo, a ballot is sent to each special district, votes are cast, and the vacancy
is filled.
Recently, LAFCo requested nomination for the Special District Member position vacated
by Hank Weston as a result of his election to the Nevada County Board of Supervisors.
New information: Attached is a letter from Katherine Hudson, Clerk of the LAFCo Board,
enclosing a ballot showing only Mr. Grundel's name for election of a LAFCo's Special
District Member to complete Mr. Weston's term, which will end May 5, 2008.
Recommendation: I would suggest casting a ballot for Mr. Grundel because he has been
serving on LAFCo as an alternate special district member since November 2006.
