Summary of Request

The Caspar South Water District, Laytonville County Water District and the Pacific Reefs Water District have their regular district election in November of odd-numbered years. When the number of candidates does not exceed the number of offices to be filled, the candidates do not go on the ballot, but rather, the Board of Supervisors appoints, in lieu of election, those candidates who filed their Declaration of Candidacy paperwork. The Board of Supervisors may appoint any qualified person to fill any remaining offices for which there were insufficient candidates; additional appointments if any, must be made by November 7, 2023.
