WAC 434-270-080. Election reserve fund

As authorized by RCW 36.33.200 , the county legislative authority may establish an election reserve fund for the payment of expenses of conducting regular and special state and county primaries or elections and compensation of election and registration officers and annually budget and levy a tax therefor. It may also make transfers into the election reserve fund from the current expense fund and receive funds for such purposes from cities, school districts, and other jurisdictions. The county legislative authority may restrict or create "reserve" funds through resolution or ordinance to set money aside for a specific purpose, such as election equipment replacement.
