Board hears support for Cullen/Red House precinct move; Wylliesburg relocation stalled over bathroom access
Loading...
Summary
Chairman Glenn Baker told the board the Red House Fire Department unanimously supports relocating the Cullen/Red House precinct and the move could occur by November if the Board of Supervisors approves. Separate talks with Wylliesburg Fire Department are ongoing to resolve a restroom access problem.
Charlotte County Electoral Board Chairman Glenn Baker reported May 15 that the Red House Fire Department has given unanimous support for relocating the Cullen/Red House precinct and that the board could implement the move in time for the November election if the Board of Supervisors approves the change. Baker said he met with the Red House FD on May 6 to discuss the relocation and that the former polling place, White Oak Grove, was notified of the proposal.
Board members also discussed Wylliesburg's proposed relocation. The board said discussions with the Wylliesburg Fire Department are ongoing; a bathroom-access problem at the proposed site remains unresolved and is delaying that precinct's move.
No formal vote or approval of either relocation was recorded at the meeting. Chairman Baker framed the Cullen/Red House item as contingent on formal approval from the Board of Supervisors and said staff had notified the White Oak Grove polling location about the potential change. The board made no final decision on Wylliesburg and left the matter in discussion.
The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn by Secretary Aubrey Fane that was approved without objection.
