What’s in it

This bill requires a county with a population of 60,000 or more based on the most recent federal decennial census to use plan “three” for the election of county supervisors. Plan “three” requires individual members of the board of supervisors for that county to be elected from single-member equal-population districts. The bill provides that a county with a population of 60,000 or more as of July 1, 2022, that does not use plan “three” as of that date for the election of supervisors shall not be required to elect supervisors under plan “three” until the election for supervisors in 2024 following adoption of a representation plan in conformity with the provisions of law governing the adoption of a plan “three” representation plan.

Fiscal note

Cost: up to $250,000 Compare with other bills

The Bill is estimated to increase county supervisor election costs by a minimum of $250,000 in 2024. The cost is derived from the setup of additional precinct locations. There may be additional precinct locations that need setup; however, these expenses are unknown. There may also be additional costs related to further stratification of ballots; however, this cost cannot be estimated at this time.
