Elections office proposes moving Suttellie Precinct from church to nearby fire station community center
Summary
The Director said Suttellie Precinct has long been hosted at Suttellie Baptist Church but staff propose moving to the Suttellie Fire Station Community Center to accommodate growth and site condition concerns; the board authorized staff to investigate availability.
The Director (speaker 4) told the board that Suttellie Precinct has for years been held at Suttellie Baptist Church, which has been cooperative, but that growth in that part of the county and the church's age prompted staff to recommend exploring the nearby Suttellie Fire Station Community Center as an alternative polling place.
"That area of the county is growing," the Director said, and moving to a county facility would improve security for election equipment and scheduling control. The board voted to have staff investigate and report back; as with other proposed moves, any final decision would depend on county permission and coordination with affected communities before a possible 2026 implementation.
