LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 1925, Santiago.
County and district offices: qualifications.
Existing law generally provides that a person is not eligible to hold a county or district office, unless the person is a registered voter of the county or district in which the duties of the office are to be exercised at the time nomination papers are issued to the person or at the time of the appointment of the person. Existing law authorizes the board of supervisors or any other legally constituted appointing authority in a county or district, if it finds that the best interests of the county or district will be served, to waive the registered voter requirement for an appointed county or district office.
This bill
would remove that waiver authority and,
instead, apply the registered voter requirement only to elective county or district offices, as specified.
