 City of Hermosa Beach -- 06-26-01CALLING, GIVING NOTICE AND REQUESTING CONSOLIDATION AND CERTAIN OTHER RESOLUTIONS NECESSARY FOR THE GENERAL MUNICIPAL ELECTION, NOVEMBER 6, 2001
Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council adopt the following resolutions pertaining to the November 6, 2001, General Municipal Election:
Background : The City will be conducting a General Municipal Election on Tuesday, November 6, 2001, for the offices of three members of the City Council. The required resolutions are presented this evening for Council adoption, which must be done prior to the July 16 opening date of the nominating period. A preliminary election calendar , which identifies that and other important deadline dates, is attached. A resolution adopting regulations for candidate statements was presented separately this evening as a consent calendar item. Two measures--one to establish City Council term limits and the other to establish coastal restrictions--qualified last year for the November 6, 2001, ballot. And at its meeting of June 12, the Council ordered a report to be presented July 10 on an initiative petition to repeal the City's Utility User Tax, which qualified with a sufficient number of signatures for the November ballot. Also at the last meeting, the Council directed staff to report back with information about placing a Council-initiated measure on the ballot to increase the City's business license tax. A Council decision on that measure must be made by July 10 to allow adequate time for the preparation of all required documents. Appropriate resolutions to place all qualified measures, including any City-initiated measures, on the November ballot will be presented for Council adoption at the July 24 meeting, which is the last regular meeting before the County's August 10 deadline for placing measures on the ballot.
