Information
Agenda Item Text:
Acknowledge the receipt of a certified copy of the official canvass of the Whetstone Water Improvement District recall election held on May 16, 2017.
Background:
ARS 16-642 requires that a special district that holds an election must canvass the election. On May 16, 2017, Whetstone Water Improvement District held a recall election of three Board members. All three were recalled and replaced by new Board members. On Wednesday, March 24, 2017, the District Board held a meeting and canvassed the election. That makes the results official. Pursuant to ARS 16-642(B), as a reporting requirement, the District must present a certified copy of the official canvass to the Board of Supervisors. The County Attorney is doing that on behalf of the District Board through this agenda item. A copy of the certified copy is attached to this agenda item. The Board need not approve the canvass or take any other action.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
None
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
None, as approval isn't required.
To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:
The Clerk of the Board should retain a certified copy of the official canvass in her file.
