ORDINANCE NO. 1703
ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF BURLINGAME
ESTABLISHING A FEE FOR PROCESSING NOMINATION PAPERS FOR CITY
OFFICES PURSUANT TO ELECTIONS CODE SECTION 10228
The CITY COUNCIL of the CITY OF BURLINGAME does hereby ordain as follows:
Section 1. The City has traditionally not charged for the processing of nomination
papers for candidates for City offices. However, the paperwork involved in that processing has
become extraordinary and complex, and the nominal fee of $25 is not an unusual burden for a
candidate to bear on filing nomination papers.
Section 2. Anew Section 2.20.020 is added to read as follows:
2.20.020 Fee for filing nomination papers.
A filing fee of twenty-five dollars ($25) is established for processing of nomination
papers for elective city offices pursuant to Elections Code section 10228.
Section 3. This ordinance shall be published as required by law and take effect
immediately pursuant to Government Code section 36937(a).
I, ANN T. MUSSO, City Clerk of the City of Burlingame, do hereby certify that the
foregoing ordinance was introduced at a regular meeting of the City Council held on the 3`d
day of March, 2003, and adopted thereafter at a regular meeting of the City Council held on the
18th day of March, 2003, by the following vote:
AYES: COUNCILMEMBERS: BAYLOCK, COFFEY, GALLIGAN, JANNEY, O'MAHONY
