General Municipal Election to be held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020

RECOMMENDATION: By motion: 1) adopt a resolution calling for the holding of a General Municipal Election to be held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, for the election of certain officers; and 2) adopt a resolution requesting the Board of Supervisors of the County of San Mateo to consolidate a General Municipal Election to be held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, and authorizing the City Manager to enter into a service agreement for the provision of election services.

FISCAL IMPACT: The San Mateo County Elections Office estimate for the November General Municipal Election is approximately $45,000. An additional $5,000 is required for advertising, translation services, and printing of election manuals and other candidate materials. If any measures are added, they would be added at roughly $10,000 per measure.

DISCUSSION: There are two City Council seats (District 2 and District 3) available in the November 3, 2020 election. The nomination period for candidates opens Monday, July 13, 2020 at 8:30 a.m. and ends Friday, August 7, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. City Hall operating hours will determine the local filing deadlines in Half Moon Bay (Friday closures).
