MINUTES Page 14 <br />City of San Leandro City Council and San Leandro Redevelopment Agency Joint Meeting~Ianuary 19, 2010 <br />Mayor Santos stated that he supports RCV, and was a supporter of Measure F in 2000. <br />He recalled that when Measure F was placed on ballot, it was with the intention that <br />RCV would be used when available. Mayor Santos commented that RCV costs less <br />than two elections, and would save the City money over time. He expressed doubt that <br />a June revenue measure would pass. <br />Vice Mayor Starosciak commented that there is evidence that RCV is the right move for <br />San Leandro, but that details would- need to be worked out. She stated that the "not to <br />exceed" amount in the MOU was fmancially burdensome for the City at this time, and <br />did not believe the City could afford it now. Vice Mayor Starosciak commented that the <br />November ballot would likely be crowded with revenue measures, and June would <br />provide flexibility. She concluded that it is not the right year for RCV in San Leandro. <br />• Resolution No. 2010-006, Resolution Approving the Memorandum of <br />Understanding Between the County of Alameda and the Cities of Oakland, <br />Berkeley and San Leandro for Reimbursement of Costs Associated with Ranked <br />Choice Voting (RCV) (provides for the implementation of RCV, including system <br />development cost, firmware upgrade, voter education and outreach, and additional <br />poll workers).
