The clerk of the board of supervisors shall perform those duties prescribed by law for the county clerk as ex officio clerk of the board of supervisors or for the clerk of the board of supervisors and such additional duties as the board of supervisors shall prescribe by ordinance. Such person may perform all the duties vested in the county clerk other than those vested in the county clerk as registrar of voters and may take acknowledgments and administer and certify oaths in the performance of such person’s official duties.
