ACTION REQUEST (Brief Summary)

Consider and take action on Resolution No. 18-003, authorizing the Mayor to enter into an Election Services Contract between the County of Galveston and the City of Texas City. (City Secretary)

BACKGROUND

This is an agreement for the County to run the City's election as part of a universal voting system.  In line with that agreement, the City must still call the election and post all proper notices.  The resolution designates the dates and times and the polling places for the May 7, 2016 election.   The locations are the same ones used in previous elections.  Depending on the number of contested seats, using the universal system with the County, the location of the polling places may be amended.
