BACKGROUND <br /> Along with adopting the required resolution calling the November 8, 2016 election, staff <br /> recommends the Council request consent from the Alameda County Board of <br /> Supervisors for the Registrar of Voters to render specific services to the City related to <br /> the conduct of the election and to consolidate with the Statewide General Election. <br /> The nomination period for candidates opens Monday, July 18, 2016 and closes Friday, <br /> August 12, 2016. Should the incumbent Mayor or a Councilmember not seek reelection, <br /> the nomination period will extend to August 17, for any qualified candidate except the <br /> incumbent. Consistent with past elections and state law, candidates will pay a $25 filing <br /> fee. <br /> The Registrar of Voters has provided an estimate of $1,200 for costs associated with <br /> printing candidate statements in the Sample Ballot & Voter Information Pamphlet. <br /> Submitted by: Fiscal Review: Approved y: <br /> C:t4/4 -5 <br /> Karen Diaz Airc Tina 0 J Nelson Fialho <br /> City Clerk Director of Finance City Manager <br /> Attachments: <br /> 1.
