    Key Takeaways

    • Allows appointed Imperial Valley Healthcare District board members to run for elected positions starting 2024.
    • Requires the district to be divided into seven voting districts by July 1, 2024.
    • Mandates board members to reside in their voting district for 30 days before election.

    Summary

    State Senator Padilla's legislation modifies election eligibility rules for the Imperial Valley Healthcare District's initial board members, allowing appointed directors to seek election in their voting districts if they meet residency requirements and win voter support. The measure amends current law that prohibits these appointees from running in the district's first election cycle.

    The bill maintains existing requirements for the healthcare district's board to establish seven voting districts by July 1, 2024, in collaboration with the Imperial County Local Agency Formation Commission. These districts must reflect demographic and geographic factors across Imperial County. The board must hold public hearings on proposed district boundaries, though it retains final authority over their configuration. Elections will commence with the next district election after January 1, 2024, with one board member elected from each voting district by its residents. Candidates must have lived in their respective voting district for at least 30 days before the election.
