Statute Text

(1) For coordinated elections, the county clerk and recorder is responsible for placing the ballot issue notices received from the various political subdivisions participating in the election in the proper order in the ballot issue notice packet.

A general disclaimer may precede or follow the ballot issue notice which states: "The information contained in this notice was prepared by persons required by law to provide summaries of ballot issues and fiscal information."
(2) The designated election officials of overlapping political subdivisions conducting an election other than a coordinated election shall confer concerning the preparation of the ballot issue notice no later than forty days prior to the date of the election. The political subdivisions conducting the election shall provide for preparation of any required ballot issue notice package by agreement in a form substantially as provided in section 1-7-116 .
