Lake County issued the following announcement on Oct. 30.
On Tuesday, November 3, the Lake County Board of Supervisors will hold their regular meeting via Zoom. For this week, only, to allow the Registrar of Voter’s office use of the Board Chambers to efficiently support Election-related activities while observing COVID-19 precautions, no members of the Board or public will participate in the Board Meeting from the Chambers.
“We encourage all Lake County voters to make their voices heard on Tuesday,” said Moke Simon, Chair of the Lake County Board of Supervisors. “Hosting our meeting virtually is a small thing our Board can do to support our Registrar of Voters, Maria Valadez, in making this Election Day smoother, safer and more secure.”
How will the Board Chambers be used on Election Day?
In an August 18, 2020, Memo Lake County’s Registrar of Voters, Maria Valadez, requested the Board’s permission to use the Chambers, “In light of the need to make special arrangements to enable constituents to vote in person safely, with proper social distancing in place.” Per Valadez, “Use of the Board Chambers [will] enable the setup of voting stations in the larger space.”
“I am grateful to the Board for their willingness to allow use of the Board Chambers,” said Valadez. “Our staff is strongly committed to voter participation and voter safety under these unusual conditions.”
