City of Phoenix Voting Center Proposal

The City of Phoenix City Clerk Department is seeking community input on a proposal to implement Voting Centers in City of Phoenix elections. Voting Centers would provide city voters with more flexibility and convenience when voting at the polls, while maintaining the existing early voting by mail program.

We would appreciate your valuable feedback on this proposal and your assistance with informing your community about this proposal and the public meetings.

Citywide community meetings will be held in late March and early April (Thursday, April 2, 2009 at 10AM - Steele Indian School Park Memorial Hall - 300 E. Indian School Road, Phoenix, AZ) to gather public input on the Voting Center proposal. City of Phoenix voters are encouraged to participate in this important process. We invite you and your community members to attend one of the public meetings to provide comments.
