This subsection is included in your selections.

Whenever a vacancy shall occur in the office of City Treasurer, whether by resignation, removal for cause, death, or other disability, the City Manager is automatically appointed to fill the vacancy temporarily until a successor is appointed or elected, unless he is already acting as Clerk or Treasurer, in which case the Planning Director shall fill the vacancy.

a. The City Council shall take the action specified by this section to fill any vacancy occurring in the office of City Treasurer. The Council shall fill the vacancy within thirty (30) days from the commencement of the vacancy, either by appointment or call a special election to fill the vacancy. Such special election shall be held on the next regularly established election date not less than ninety (90) days from the call of the special election. A person appointed or elected to fill a vacancy holds office for the unexpired term of the former incumbent.

b. If the vacancy is to be filled by election, the City Council shall follow the procedure for special elections in the Elections Code. The City Council will not normally schedule a special election to fill a vacancy where the unexpired term is less than one (1) year and need not do so in any case. (Ord. #17; Ord. #2012-153)
