Water District Board in Mukilteo, Snohomish County, Washington

Each county official holding an elective office shall be, at the time of appointment or election and at all times while holding office, a citizen of the United States over the age of twenty-one, a county resident for the three years immediately prior to filing for or appointment to office, and a registered voter of the county. No person shall be eligible to be elected to more than three consecutive full terms for any office. For the purposes of this section, different positions on the county council shall not be considered different offices.

The filing fee is based upon the salary of the office. Offices without a fixed annual salary have no filing fee. For any office with a fixed annual salary of $1,000 or less, candidates pay a filing fee of $10. For all offices with salaries exceeding $1,000, candidates pay a fee equal to one percent of the office’s fixed annual salary. Candidates without sufficient assets or income may submit a filing fee petition to pay the filing fee. Petitions must include a total number of valid signatures equal to the dollar amount of the filing fee.
