AGENDA ITEM #8
FROM: Shanna D. Kuhlemier, CMC, District Clerk
SUBJECT: Consideration to Adopt Resolutions to Consolidate the
General Elections on November 8, 2022
APPROVED BY
Brian C. Wright, General Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolutions 2022-10 and 2022-11 to consolidate the District's November 2022
General Elections with Nevada and Placer County, respectively.
BACKGROUND:
The Board of Directors are elected every four years in staggering terms. In efforts to save
constituents money, the District can consolidate the even year elections with both Nevada
County and Placer County. Historically, the District has taken advantage of this solution
and utilized the registrar of voters in both counties to hold our elections.
ANALYSIS/BODY:
On November 8, 2022, two Director Seats will be up for election including:
• Christa Finn; and
• Tony Laliotis.
The District is required to submit Board approved resolutions with ancillary paperwork to
Nevada County and Placer County by July 6, 2022 to consolidate the elections. The
resolutions are routine in nature, with changes to names.
Moreover, consolidating elections kicks off the General Election Calendar. Candidate
filing begins July 18, 2022 and regular candidate filing ends August 12, 2022. Should an
incumbent chose not to file, an extended time follows for five days, closing candidate
filings August 17, 2022.
