SAN DIEGO COUNTY EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT ASSOCIATION (SDCERA) BOARD OF RETIREMENT ELECTION - SEVENTH SAFETY MEMBER (DISTRICTS: ALL)
Body
OVERVIEW
This item is to request the Board of Supervisors, pursuant to Resolution No. 13-135 (Resolution) to direct the Clerk of the Board to cast a unanimous ballot in favor of David L. Gilmore to fill the regular three-year term for the Seventh (Safety) Member on the Board of Retirement.
Mr. Gilmore filed the only valid nomination petition with the Registrar of Voters. Pursuant to Resolution No. 13-135, when only one sufficient petition is filed, no election will be held, and the Board of Supervisors will direct the Clerk of the Board to cast a unanimous ballot in favor of the candidate. Because there is only one candidate, the Alternate Seventh (Safety) Member seat will remain vacant.
