SUMMARY
On January 16, 2018, the Council adopted Resolution No. 2018-004 to set June 7, 2016 as the date of the General Municipal Election to elect a Mayor, two members of the City Council, representing Districts 1 and 2, and a City Attorney. Adoption of the attached resolution removes the District 1 City Council position and the City Attorney position from the General Municipal Election since only two candidates for each seat qualified for placement on the ballot, and appropriates funds to account for the two remaining seats and the ballot measure that was previously approved by Council. The two qualified candidates for District 1 and for City Attorney will be placed on the ballot for the November runoff election, pursuant to Chula Vista Charter section 300.A.3.
