• • <br />8. SUPERVISOR OF ELECTIONS KAY CLEM - APPROVAL OF NEW <br />PRECINCT LINES (REDISTRICTING) <br />The Board reviewed a Memorandum of July 26, 2002 and August 5, 2002: <br />wet-, <br />Kay Clem <br />Supervisor of Elections <br />Indian River County, Florida <br />MEMORANDUM July 26, 2002 <br />TO: Honorable Ruth Stanbridge <br />Chairman, Indian River County Commission <br />FROM: Kay Clem */ <br />RE: <br />Agenda Item <br />Redistricting <br />We have been given permission from the Division of Elections to finalize our <br />redistricting efforts and mail voter identification cards to all voters. <br />We are seeking the Commission's approval of the new precinct lines so that we <br />can begin our mailing efforts. All precincts have been re -numbered and <br />reconfigured. We have increased the number of precincts to 54 (46 polling <br />places) from 38. <br />We will have a map for your review at the Commission meeting and enclosed is a <br />copy of our conversion chart. Legal descriptions will be available in my office <br />upon completion by Marvin Carter of Carter Associates. <br />You can expect more precinct boundary and polling place changes before the <br />2004 elections as all polling places will be required to meet the American with <br />Disabilities Act accessibility requirements. Currently, many of the churches and <br />other buildings we are using have been grandfathered in, thus not meeting all the <br />ADA requirements. The State is developing a survey for us to use in <br />ascertaining which of our existing polling places meet the federal requirements. <br />This change could have significant fiscal impact upon Indian River County. <br />Please add the precinct boundary changes to your August 6, 2002 agenda. <br />AUGUST 6, 2002 <br />) <br />53 <br />Y <br />
