<br />~ðA-~ <br /> <br />The California Elections Code provides for consolidation of local elections, ordered by <br />one of the jurisdictions calling an election on the same date in the same or overlapping <br />territory. Redwood City has consolidated previous elections with accurate, efficient and <br />cost-effective results and it is recommended that the City Council order consolidation <br />for the November 8, 2005 General Municipal Election and Special Municipal Election. <br /> <br />The San Mateo County Elections Office provides certain election services for the City of <br />Redwood City and other agencies and districts. The resolution provides for the <br />agreement to be amended and applicable to all future Consolidated General and <br />Special Municipal Elections. <br /> <br />A related matter is the cost estimate of printing and handling of candidate's statements. <br />Candidates choosing to have a candidate statement will share costs with other <br />candidates and the estimated cost is $519.00. Based on actual costs, after the election, <br />any adjustments are made with the candidate receiving any refund due or being <br />invoiced for any balance due. <br /> <br />The California Elections Code provides for Council adoption of procedures to resolve tie <br />votes. While a tie vote is highly unlikely, Council may wish to consider action on a <br />procedure at this time. <br /> <br />Patricia S.
