Moorpark prepares for pivotal 2024 municipal election
The Moorpark City Council convened to discuss significant upcoming events, including the adoption of resolutions for the general municipal election scheduled for November 5, 2024. This election will involve the selection of a mayor and two council members, marking the third district-based election in the city. The council is requesting the Ventura County Board of Supervisors to consolidate this municipal election with the statewide general election on the same date.

The candidate filing period for the election will commence on July 15, 2024, and conclude on August 9, 2024. Should an incumbent fail to file for reelection, the filing period for that specific position will be extended by five days. The city has allocated $32,100 in its fiscal year 2024-2025 budget to support the election process.

During the meeting, the council unanimously approved the resolutions and directed staff to transmit them to the Ventura County Elections Division.

Additionally, the council addressed the upcoming appointments to the 2024-2025 Teen Council. The current term for teen council members will end on June 30, 2024, prompting a recruitment drive that garnered 24 applications. The outreach efforts included press releases, social media announcements, and direct engagement with local teens to encourage applications.

The council's decisions reflect a commitment to civic engagement and youth participation in local governance.
