Clearlake is a City, not simply another name for the lake or the county. LCP helps turn your approved local identity into readable signs, mail, print and web materials with municipal resources easy to reach. Council: Five directly elected members. Mayor: Selected by Council from its members. Municipal paperwork: Administrative Services / City Clerk. Clearlake is an incorporated Lake County city with five directly elected Council members serving staggered terms. Council members choose the Mayor and Vice Mayor from their ranks. Its Administrative Services department combines recreation and events with the statutory City Clerk role, making it a practical starting point for municipal election documents and local public records. Recreation, events and civic administration share a local resource. Clearlake’s Administrative Services department includes Recreation and Events as well as City Clerk functions. The City also publishes park master plans, planning resources and public records forms. For a community event or public-information piece, those are concrete channels for identifying the responsible office and the approved project description. Give LCP the organization name, authorized venue and final event information. We can produce a clear handout, sign and online announcement without suggesting that a City resource listing is an endorsement of your project. Council members select the Mayor each year. The Council overview identifies five directly elected members with staggered terms. In December the Council selects a Mayor and Vice Mayor by majority vote from among its members; the stated terms are twelve months beginning January 1, unless otherwise provided by Council majority vote. The Council appoints the City Manager and City Attorney. For candidate artwork, confirm the office name with the Clerk rather than treating the Mayor’s title as a separately elected position. Current municipal instructions are the authority for nomination details. Candidate documents and measure documents need different briefs. The Administrative Services resource lists official candidate information, forms and the full text of Measure D, a 2026 proposal concerning an appointive City Treasurer. A proposed measure and a candidate position are different projects; supply the correct committee identity and approved source document for each. Lake County’s Registrar administers municipal as well as county, school and other local district elections. Confirm the actual office and jurisdiction there for a non-City project, while using Clearlake’s Clerk resource for its municipal documents. Make print and digital proofs agree before release. An official candidate statement, a mailer and a website may have different formats, but names, office labels and approved contact details should agree. LCP can help turn approved copy and photographs into a coordinated set, with quantities, printing, mailing and web scope quoted clearly. Use the City’s posted 2026 documents as dated references. For 2028, ask Administrative Services/City Clerk for the current calendar and requirements before scheduling production. Before you brief us on a Clearlake project. Identify candidate, measure committee or community organization. Confirm City Clerk instructions and the precise legal/disclaimer text. Provide approved photos, quantities and delivery dates for each format. What Local Campaign Pros can produce for Clearlake campaigns.

No. Clearlake is an incorporated City within Lake County. County, school and special-district offices remain separate from its municipal offices. Who provides Clearlake municipal election information? Administrative Services carries the City Clerk role and serves as the City’s elections official. Lake County’s Registrar administers the consolidated election. Can a measure committee request the same kinds of materials as a candidate? LCP can quote print, signs, mail and web for either, but the campaign design, disclaimer and source documents must identify the correct committee and purpose.
