Body

  Summary:

This is an intergovernmental agreement with the El Paso County Clerk and Recorder for the 2020 Coordinated Election.

 

  Background: 

State law requires all entities participating in the November 5, 2019 Coordinated Election to sign and return intergovernmental agreements to participate in this election by no later than August 25, 2020.

  Previous Council Action:

On July 14, 2020 City Council passed a resolution declaring their intention to hold a Special Municipal Election and to participate in the 2020 Coordinated Election being conducted by the El Paso County Clerk and Recorder.

On July 28, August 11 and August 25, 2020, City Council will consider potential ballot questions for a Special Municipal Election and refer questions to be placed on a ballot in a coordinated November 2019 election.

The El Paso County Clerk and Recorder estimates it will cost the City $283,389.84 to participate in the 2020 Coordinated Election.
