Body
Issue/Request:
An Ordinance approving the 2019 Jackson County Board of Election Commissioners Poll Contracts and authorizing the Mayor to execute the same by and on behalf of the City.
Key Issues:
Each year, the Jackson County Board of Election Commissioners (JCBEC) uses certain City and Lee's Summit Parks and Recreation owned facilities as polling places. For 2019, JCBEC has requested the use of Gamber Community Center, Longview Community Center, Legacy Park Community Center, and City Hall for elections to be held on February 5, April 2, August 5 and November 5, 2019. JCBEC has also incorporated the February 4, 2020 election in the current poll contract.
Because JCBEC is a political subdivision, RSMo. 70.220.3 requires taht the agreements between LSPR, the City and JCBEC be approved by the governing body of Lee's Summit, Missouri.
Proposed City Council Motion:
FIRST MOTION: I move for a second reading of an Ordinance approving the 2019 Jackson County Board of Election Commissioners Poll Contracts and authorizing the Mayor to exectue the same by and on behalf of the City.
SECOND MOTION: I move for adoption of an Ordinance approving the 2019 Jackson County Board of Election Commissioners Poll Contracts and authorizing the Mayor to exectue the same by and on behalf of the City.
