§ 3.08.070. Candidate's affidavit of inability to pay filing fee.

Latest version.

The Clerk shall accept nomination petitions without payment from any candidate who certifies under penalty of perjury on a form provided by the Clerk that he or she is unable to pay the filing fee; but the obligation to pay the filing fee shall remain a debt owing to the city for a period of two years. Any person who files nomination petitions with an affidavit of inability to pay the filing fee, but who has at the time of filing the nomination petitions, or within two years thereafter, income, compensation, assets, or real property, including the income, compensation, assets or real property of a spouse, shall be liable for the unpaid fees, and interest, in an action by the City Clerk in the name of the city in any court of competent jurisdiction. If a candidate files an affidavit of inability to pay the filing fee, that affidavit applies to the deposit and any remaining balance. An action to collect these unpaid fees must be commenced within two years of the date of filing of the nomination petitions, whether his or her nomination petitions are found sufficient or insufficient.
