Expiring Positions and Annual Election

The KCCD has two expiring positions on our Board of Supervisors. The Board is made up of 5 Supervisors. Three are elected locally and 2 are appointed by the Washington State Conservation Commission. One expiring position is currently held by Mark Moore and is an elected position. The second is held by Dale Dyk and is an appointed position. Read on to learn how you can be considered for these positions or how you can vote in the KCCD election.

Elected Position


Individuals interested in the elected position must complete a candidate information form and submit it to the KCCD office by 4:30PM on January 11, 2010. If a candidate wishes for their name to be pre-printed on the ballot, they must also submit a nominating petition with signatures from at least 25 registered voters residing within the KCCD boundaries by 4:30PM on January 11, 2010. If a valid candidate information form is submitted, but a nominating petition is not, the candidate will be considered a "declared write-in" and their name will not be pre-printed on the ballots. Both the candidate information form and the nominating petition can be downloaded from the KCCD website at (http://kccd.net/). The links are on the right hand side of the page.


The Board of Supervisors conducts an annual election to fill the elected positions. The 2010 election is scheduled for February 9, 2009. There are two ways that voters can participate. First is to vote in person at one of the two polling stations (Council Chambers at City Hall 119 W First, Cle Elum or KCCD office at 607 E Mountain View in Ellensburg) from 10AM to 2PM on February 9th. The second is to request a mail-in ballot. Ballots must be requested by 4:30 on February 2nd. They will be mailed February 3rd and must be returned to the KCCD office by 4:30PM on February 9th. Please note that postmarking the ballot by the 9th will not be sufficient- the ballot must be received in the office by 4:30PM. Ballot requests can be made by phone (925-8585 ext. 4), by mail (607 e Mountain View Ave, Ellensburg 98926), or by e-mail.
