The candidate shall be required to pay for the cost of translating the candidate statement into any required foreign language as specified above. B. Printing: 1. The candidate shall be required to pay for the cost of printing the candidate statement in English in the main voter pamphlet. 2. The candidate shall be required to pay for the cost of printing the candidates statement in a foreign language required in Subsection (A) of Section 2 above, in the main voter pamphlet. 3. The candidate shall be required to pay for the cost of printing the candidates statement in a foreign language required by Subsection (A) of Section 2 above, in the facsimile voter pamphlet. The City Clerk shall estimate the total cost of printing, handling, translating, and mailing the candidate’s statements filed pursuant to this section, including costs incurred as a result of complying with the Voting Rights Act of 1965 (as amended), and require each candidate filing a statement to pay in advance to the local agency his or her estimated pro rata share as a condition of having his or her statement included in the voter’s pamphlet. In the event the estimated payment is required, the estimate is just an approximation of the actual cost that varies from one election to another election and may be significantly more or less than the estimate, depending on the actual number of candidates filing statements. Accordingly, the City Clerk is not bound by the estimate and may on a pro rata basis, bill the candidate for additional actual expense or refund any excess paid depending on the final actual cost. In the event of underpayment, the City Clerk may require the candidate to pay the balance of the cost incurred. In the event of overpayment, the City Clerk shall prorate the excess amount among the candidates and refund the excess amount paid within a reasonable time after the County has provided the City’s final election costs. 4. MISCELLANEOUS. The City Clerk shall comply with all recommendations and standards set forth by the California Secretary of State regarding occupational designations and other matters relating to elections. 5. ADDITIONAL MATERIALS. No candidate will be permitted to include additional materials in the sample ballot package. 6. That the City Clerk shall provide each candidate or the candidate’s representative a copy of this Resolution at the time nominating petitions are issued. 7. That all previous Resolutions establishing City Council policy on payment for candidate statements are repealed. 6.3.E. - Page 11
