Pursuant to Elections Code Section 10411, in the case of the consolidation of any election called by the legislative body of a city, with an election held in the county or counties in which the city is situated, the governing body of the city may authorize the board of supervisors to canvass the returns of the election.
This authorization shall be pursuant to Elections Code Section 10002 and be in the form of a resolution requesting that the board of supervisors instruct the county voter registrar to render specified services to the city in the conduct of an election, which include canvass of the returns. The resolution shall be adopted at the same time as the resolution calling the election.
Elections Code Section 10002 shall also apply to elections not consolidated with any other election. After certification by the county of the canvass of a non-consolidated election, the governing body of the city, pursuant to Elections Code Section 10262, shall meet at its usual place of meeting on the first Tuesday after the election, and shall pass a resolution reciting the fact of the election.
