The City of Kissimmee City Commission is reviewing a resolution to amend candidate qualification procedures for City Commission and Mayor-Commissioner elections. This resolution will define the roles of the Financial Filing Officer and the Qualifying Officer, and will require candidates to submit an Affidavit of City Residency and a Receipt of Qualification Packet Affidavit. The Osceola County Supervisor of Elections will serve as the Financial Filing Officer. The City Clerk will act as the Qualifying Officer, reviewing materials for completeness. The City Commission will remain the final authority on candidate eligibility. This item is currently under review. The process involves establishing new administrative procedures and forms for candidate qualification, which may require updated printing and legal services. Local businesses specializing in legal services, administrative support, and printing could find opportunities as these new procedures are implemented and finalized.
