From: Kelly Murtaugh
Date: March 21, 2022
Item: Adopt Precincts and Election Polling Place Locations
Council Action Requested:
Adopt the attached resolution approving precincts and Election polling place locations.
Background Information:
Minnesota Statute 204B.14.Subd 3(e) dictates that precinct boundaries must be reestablished
within 60 days of the time when the legislature has been redistricted, or at least 19 weeks before
the state primary election in a year ending in two. The adoption of reestablished precinct
boundaries and polling places becomes effective on the date of the state primary election in the
year ending in two.
Minnesota Statute 204B.16 dictates that the governing body must designate by ordinance or
resolution a polling place for each election precinct and that that designation is in effect for the
following calendar year, unless a change is made. Pursuant to MS 204B.14, if precinct
boundaries are reestablished, the city council must re-designate polling places for each election
precinct.
The Charter Commission met February 23, 2022 and recommended changes to the precinct
boundaries. Therefore, the polling places must be re-designated.
