April 14, 2014 Item No.
ESTABLISH CHERRY VIEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
AS THE PRECINCT 12 POLLING PLACE
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Approve resolution establishing Cherry
View Elementary School as the Precinct 12 polling place.
Passage of this motion moves the polling place for Precinct 12 from Messiah Lutheran Church
to Cherry View Elementary School.
Overview
I was recently notified by representatives of Messiah Lutheran Church that their building will
undergo some remodeling this summer and, as such, will not be available for the August 12"
Primary Election.
I contacted ISD 194 to inquire if either Oak Hills Elementary or Cherry View Elementary would
be available. ISD 194 has offered the use of Cherry View Elementary for this year's elections.
State Statute allows a polling place to be located within one mile of the precinct boundary for
which it serves. Cherry View Elementary is located within one mile of the south boundary of
Precinct 12.
Primary Issues to Consider
How will registered voters be notified of the polling place change?
Postal Verification Cards will be mailed by Dakota County to all registered voters in Precinct 12. In
addition, polling place information will be posted on the City's website prior to the August 12 and
November elections.
