BOOL; 67 <br />JAN 20 1987 <br />0. Budget Amendment`_ Special Election <br />The Board reviewed memo of the OMB Director, as follows: <br />TO: Honorable Board of County DATE: January 20, 1987 <br />Commissioners <br />THROUGH: Ann Robinson A-?� <br />Supervisor of Elections <br />FROM: Josep A. Baird <br />OMB Director <br />SUBJECT: Budget Amendment <br />for Special <br />Election <br />At the meeting of January 13, 1987, the Supervisor of <br />Elections informed the Board of County Commissioners that it <br />would cost $15,000 to hold a special election on March 10, <br />1987. In order to be prepared for the election, Mrs Robinson <br />needs to expend approximately $3,000 for printing cost. <br />Recommendation <br />_ __ _ _-I am requesting the Board of County Commissioners <br />immediately appropriate $3,000 for the Supervisor of <br />Elections and if the Board decides to hold the special <br />election, that they authorize and appropriate the remaining <br />$12,000 at a later date. Funds will be transferred from <br />general fund contingency. <br />Commissioner Wheeler wished to know if legally we are pro- <br />ceeding with this properly and whether there is any problem with <br />approving the money before we approve the election. <br />County Attorney Vitunac did not see any legal problem. <br />Everyone knows there is going to be an election, and we can't <br />adopt the ordinance any sooner than the 27th because of the <br />Tourist Tax Law which has nothing to do with the election law. <br />On motion by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously <br />approved the proposed budget amendment contingent <br />upon the election being approved on January 27th. <br />28 <br />
