Staff Report
Date: December 28, 2000
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Commission
From: Jean Grafton, City Clerk
Subject: City of Ocoee Municipal Election Polling Places
In the recent past we have held municipal elections (that were not piggy-backing on
larger elections) in the Community Center, as it simplified the entire procedure for the
voter, the elections office, and our staff. This year, as we have grown considerably
and expect to have a greater number of voters, we would like to open the Beech
Recreation Center for District 1 and District 4, and the Community Center for District
2 and District 3. This would provide a separate polling place for each Commission
race: District 1 at Beech Recreation Center and District 3 at the Community Center. I
have verified that the buildings can be available on March 13 for the election and April
10 for a run-off election if needed.
Notification to the voters of the change in polling place for those in Districts 1 and 4
would be provided through the Supervisor of Elections office, our Web Page, Channel
10, The West Orange Times, and The Orlando Sentinel.
For your information, as of December 13, there are the following number of registered
voters in the City of Ocoee:
District 1 2,096
District 2 3,256
District 3 2,706
District 4 2 815
TOTAL 10,873
Action recommended
Staff respectfully recommends approval and authorization to hold the municipal election
at two polling places with District 1 and District 4 voting at the Beech Recreation
Center and District 2 and District 3 voting at the Community Center.
