HomeMy WebLinkAbout1993-03-03 EC MEMOMEMORANDUM TO: Election Commission Members FROM: Pat Crow, City Clerk DATE: March 3, 1993 SUBJECT: CITY COUNCIL/ELECTION COMMISSION MEETING Our meeting with City Council, originally scheduled for April 5, has been postponed to June 7. As discussed at our last meeting, we did not believe we would be ready to present to Council the concept of a centralized/cooperative election, and should therefore ask for postponement. I do hope the June 7 date is acceptable to you. Prior to the June 7 meeting, we hope the Commission can meet with the City Attorney. That meeting has not been set and will depend some on the outcome of Arapahoe County's meeting with municipal clerks on March 18. In informal discussions with Mr. DeWitt, it does not appear Englewood will be able to hold its election in complete conjunction with Arapahoe County; however, we will strive to conduct a centralized election as required by Amendment No. 1, and cooperate with Arapahoe County's procedure when and where possible. The real problem lies more with our Charter restrictions than with the Colorado Municipal Election Code. I am posing to Mr. DeWitt several questions about the election. When I have more information, and prior to the June 7 meeting, we will meet with him to discuss our options. Attached are the minutes from our February 19, 1993, meeting. Lou will call sometime next week for approval of our minutes. Also, copies of minutes of City Council's February 16 meeting are enclosed. cc: Rick DeWitt, City Attorney Lorraine Hayes, Director of Financial Services
