Explanation:

The State Legislature has enacted legislation that requires all candidates for state offices to file their campaign treasurer reports electronically with the Department of State.  In addition, the State Legislature enacted legislation for cities to allow their candidates to file campaign treasurer reports electronically, as long as each City adopts such legislation.

 

This ordinance, when enacted, will allow our City candidates to file campaign treasurer reports electronically with the City Clerk.
