Board establishes polling places for off‑cycle school elections under Minnesota law
Summary
The School Board unanimously adopted a resolution (6–0 roll call) confirming precinct polling places and allowing combined polling places for school elections not held on state election days, citing Minnesota Statutes Section 205A.11.
The School Board on Dec. 16 adopted a resolution establishing precinct polling places and combined polling places for school district elections not held on the day of a statewide election. The resolution cites Minnesota Statutes, Section 205A.11, and confirms those precincts established by municipalities; it also affirms the board’s authority to establish combined polling places as permitted under the statute. The resolution carried on a 6–0 roll‑call vote.
The board’s action formalizes administrative arrangements for off‑cycle school elections and notes that any later changes to polling places must themselves be designated by a subsequent board resolution adopted no later than Dec. 31 of the year in which changes are made, consistent with the statute referenced in the resolution.
