CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION DESIGNATING POLLING
LOCATIONS FOR THE 2018 ELECTIONS
Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to designate polling locations for the
2018 elections.
History
In the past, election polling locations have been designated before
each election, along with election judges. No designation was
needed in years when no local election was held. In 2017 the
legislature changed the state statutes requiring municipalities and
school districts to designate polling locations by ordinance or
resolution by December 31st of each year for the next calendar year.
This annual designation is required regardless of whether there is
an election or any changes to polling locations for the next calendar
year.

Listed below are the eight precincts in the City of Prior Lake designated as
polling locations for 2018:
