External message alert: This message originated from outside the Ramsey County email system. Use caution when <br />clicking hyperlinks, downloading pictures or opening attachments. <br />Hi Emily, <br />Thank you for all the documents and agreements you sent earlier today. <br />Very helpful, and so appreciated! <br />We reviewed the Agreement between Ramsey County and the City of Mounds <br />View for Election Services, and have a few questions. <br />Under the "County Responsibilities" the only place that petitions are <br />mentioned is under section 4(r), which states: <br />"Perform all duties of the candidate filing officer, including the <br />acceptance of affidavits of candidacy and petitions." <br />As we read and interpret that sentence, it seems that the second part <br />of the sentence, is still related to petitions related to a candidate's <br />filing. It clearly is worded as an add -on to the first part of the <br />sentence related to candidates filings. We know that there can be <br />candidates who file petitions for one thing or another, like placement <br />on a ballot, inappropriate campaigning, etc... <br />This duty does not seem to encompass and include the type of petition we <br />submitted to the city. Please comment... <br />Did your responsibility to handle the examination of the petition come <br />from 4(r), or from elsewhere in the section of "County <br />Responsibilities"? If elsewhere, where specifically? What section <br />number? <br />In addition, the agreement (in General Agreements section) states that <br />"This Agreement ONLY applies to regularly scheduled elections." Would a <br />petition submitted by residents be considered regularly scheduled <br />elections? It does state that the county will conduct all special <br />elections, but a petition is not a special election, right? <br />Just checking to see under what part of the agreement the Ramsey <br />county elections office is acting upon when it takes on responsible for <br />issuing an opinion on a petition such as this? We are not seeing that <br />specified in the agreement with Mounds View. Please direct us to where <br />you are looking to see that responsibility in your agreement. <br />So sorry to bother you again with more questions, and such detailed <br />questions. This is a legal matter, so contracts and exact wording does <br />matter, and we are trying our best to look at every detail. Thank you <br />so much. Will watch for your reply soon. <br />best wishes, <br />Valerie Amundsen, Mounds View Resident & Petition Submitter <br />763-786-5699 <br />2 <br />
