RE: Paloma Irrigation and Drainage District
Mail Ballot Elections
Dear Ms. McCarroll:
Pursuant to Arizona Revised Statutes § 16-558(A), an irrigation district may conduct its elections
by mail ballot if the governing board of the district obtains approval from the board of
supervisors of the county in which the district is located, prior to publishing the call of
election. The board of directors of Paloma Irrigation and Drainage District ("PIDD"), through its
manager below, hereby requests permission from the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to
conduct a mail ballot election for the 2019 PIDD election of directors. A mail ballot election is
superior because PIDD has a small number of electors and they do not reside within the
boundaries of PIDD.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please feel free to call the PIDD office at
(928) 683-2237, or District Counsel, Jeff Zimmerman, at 602-604-2111. Thank you for your
prompt attention to this request.
Sincerely,
Robert VanHofwegen
District Manager
