D. Request from Supervisor of Elections to Purchase Used Voting Booths The Board reviewed memo from the Supervisor of Elections: April 12, 1989 TO: HON. GARY C. WHEELER, CHAIRMAN, BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS FROM: ANN ROBINSON, SUPERVISOR OF ELECTIONS AZ RE: ITEM FOR BCC AGENDA OF APRIL 18, 1989 Florida Statute 101.72 requires that the supervisor of elections provide at least one voting booth for each 125 registered voters in the county. We have the correct amount of equipment now, but there is not enough equipment for 1990. We will need another 40-50 voting booths for the 1990 elections, depending on the number of registered voters. A new voting booth costs $285. The vendor who sold us the new equipment in 1985 has 40 used, reconditioned voting booths just like our others which he will sell the county for $180 each. No other vendor makes exactly the same booth,. but the CES company is starting up again with similar equipment; however, they will be selling new booths. I request that the Board of County Commissioners vote to amend the elections budget to allow me to purchase the 40 used voting booths from Business Records at a cost of $180 each plus freight. Please put $7,200 in elections account 001-700-519-035.29. If you would like to see a reconditioned booth, there is one set up in the elections office. Business Records has agreed to hold the 40 booths until April 18. The company does not have any more used Model V booths for sale. Thank you. ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Com- missioner Bowman, the Board unanimously authorized amending the Elections budget as requested above to cover the purchase of 450 used voting booths.
