Background: On March 14, 2006 the Board of Supervisors approved, and the Chairman signed Resolution #078-2006 approving a contract with the Secretary of State for distribution of $1,095,674.94 in HAVA Section 301 federal grant funding.
 
El Dorado County utilized $591,550.49 of the $1,095,674.94 originally awarded.   The Secretary of State has issued a new contract for the remaining $504,124.45 currently available and is requesting a Resolution reflecting this change.
 
Reason for Recommendation:  The previous contract has expired and the Secretary of State is requiring a new contract along with a Board Resolution reflecting the revised dollar amount.
