CONSENT AGENDA- Cathy Sorensen, City Clerk
Title
UPDATED POLLING PLACE DESIGNATIONS FOR THE 2018 STATE PRIMARY AND STATE GENERAL ELECTION
Background
Council adopted Resolution 17-178 designating polling place locations for 2018. Since then Brookhall at 11930 Central Avenue NE has informed staff that they are unable to serve as a polling location for Precinct 3-7. While the Resolution authorized staff to designate replacement polling place locations in the event one becomes unavailable for use staff wanted to inform Council of the change and provide Anoka and Ramsey Counties with an updated Resolution. The attached map identifies all 24 polling locations, including the new location for Precinct 3-7 at MAS of MN, 12175 Aberdeen Street NE. Notice of all new polling locations will be sent to every affected household prior to the Primary election in August.
Recommendation
Adopt the proposed resolution designating polling places for the 2018 State Primary and State General Election, including the new polling place location for Precinct 3-7, MAS of MN, at 12175 Aberdeen Street NE.
Body
WHEREAS, Minnesota Statutes 204B.16, subd 1 requires the City Council, by ordinance or resolution, to designate polling places for the upcoming year; and
WHEREAS, changes to the polling places locations may be made at least 90 days before the next election if one or more of the authorized polling places becomes unavailable for use; and
WHEREAS, the state primary is August 14, 2018 and the state general election is November 6, 2018.
