CITY OF SAN LEANDRO <br />STAFF REPORT <br />DATE: January 19, 2010 <br />TO: Stephen Hollister, City Manager <br />FROM: Marian Handa, City Clerk <br />SUBJECT PROJECT/PROJECT DESCRIPTION: <br />APPROVED AND <br />FORWARDED <br />TO CITY COUNCIL <br />~~~ <br />Stephen Hollister <br />City Manager <br />MATTER OF CONSIDERATION OF USING RANKED CHOICE VOTING (RCV) FOR THE <br />2010 GENERAL MUNICIPAL ELECTION (CONTINUED FROM DECEMBER 7, 2009) <br />SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION <br />At its meeting on December 7, 2009, the City Council continued the consideration of using <br />Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) for the 2010 General Municipal Election to January 19, 2010. <br />The matter was continued to give the Council sufficient time to ensure that the City of Oakland <br />was moving forward with RCV, and to give staff time to explore possibilities for mitigating the <br />first-year implementation costs of RCV. <br />This report provides updates on the Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) system, approval, cost, and <br />other issues for consideration.
