meetings. Asked the City Clerk to provide a brief overview about how the vacancy left by Councilmember Chavez would be handled.
MAYOR/MANAGER REPORTS AND COMMENTS

Announced it was National Animal Center Week and acknowledged the hard work, dedication and vital roles played by Fresno Animal Center staff, volunteers, and the foster caregivers who ensure positive outcomes for animals in their care.
CITY CLERK AND CITY ATTORNEY REPORTS AND COMMENTS
City Clerk Stermer Reports and Comments: Briefly explained how the vacancy left by Councilmember Chavez would be handled. Councilmember Chavez may resign prior to serving on the Board of Supervisors or his term will be forfeit upon being sworn into the new position. Council must declare the vacancy and by resolution call a special election to fill the seat. The Charter for the City of Fresno (Charter) requires the special election be held no sooner than 90 days after the vacancy is declared. A Notice of Election will need to be published no later than 113 days before the election. Early May would be the soonest the election could be held depending on when the seat becomes vacant. Council can not appoint an interim Councilmember because the Charter only allows that if the seat becomes vacant in the last year of the term. If the special election does not result in a majority vote for one candidate Council would, within 30 days, call another special election between the two candidates that received the most votes. Given the timelines, the soonest the vacancy could be filled would be sometime in May 2025. Following the vacancy, Council will consist of six members until the special election results are finalized. An overview of the process will be posted to the City Clerk and City Attorney's websites.
