Resolution

ITEM:

Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding Resolution No. 2310.  A Resolution of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Luis, Arizona, establishing deadlines for Pro and Con Statements for the November 5th, 2024, General Election Ballot on the Southwest Gas Franchise Agreement; and declaring an emergency.  (Kay Marion Macuil, City Attorney)

(6 votes in favor are required in order to pass immediately as an emergency measure per A.R.S. § 19-142)

SUMMARY:

The voters must approve the Southwest Gas Franchise Agreement. The Franchise Agreement expires this year. As part of the process, San Luis must request pro and con statements for the publicity pamphlet that goes with the ballot to explain the ballot question.

This Resolution No. 2310 sets the deadline for pro and con statements for August 7, 2024.

The resolution must pass as an emergency because the notice of the deadline must be published in a newspaper by June 8, 2024. Resolutions by Arizona Statute and City Code do not become effective for 30 days, and there are not 30 days between May 22 and June 8. So, it must be passed as an emergency so that it takes effect in time for publication.

RECOMMENDATION / SUGGESTED MOTION:

I MOVE TO APPROVE AND ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 2310 AND DECLARE AN EMERGENCY.
