body
Financial Impact:
All costs associated with this agreement will be reimbursed by the state through these contracts. A transfer to add the new revenue to the budget will be coming forward in the next couple of weeks.
Background Information:
These funds have been allocated to the state by the Federal government for disbursement amongst California counties. These funds will be used to enhance election security and technology in Tehama County, thereby continuing to ensure a secure and transparent election process. If this agreement is not approved, the County will lose out on the opportunity to receive funds to support the ongoing requirement to ensure our election process is safe and secure.
