§ 29544 Proposition Failure Recording

Key Takeaways

  • •If a vote or proposal doesn't pass, the result must be written down.
  • •The record of the failed vote goes to the county's board of supervisors.
  • •This is just about keeping track of what didn't get approved.

Example

A town votes on whether to build a new park, but most people say no.

The county must write down that the park idea was rejected so everyone knows it didn’t pass.
