The City's Precincts and Poll Workers are confirmed and I am confident that our Primary Election can be successful. The City's required Voting System Technicians were reduced from 20 toll (11 VST's at the Precincts, 1 Regional VST and 2 Alternate VSTs) and we combined Precincts to reduce costs where possible. The Supervisor of Elections will train the Poll Workers and hire and train the VSTs. The City will share a Regional Site with Fort Lauderdale that will be located on State Road 84 where the iVotronics and poll worker materials will be disbursed. In addition, the City will have a Chain of Custody responsibility to pick up the iVotronic equipment from the Precincts on election night within 1 hour after the polls close and return them to the Regional Site. Some factors that have increased election costs: *Annexation in 2001 increased the City's population; *The redistricting in May and June increased the City's Precincts from 8 to 14; *More Precincts require more poll workers; *Voting System Technicians are now required for each precinct to provide technical support for the lVotronic voting equipment. *IVotronic equipment must be returned to the Regional Sites on election night; *Supervisor of Elections $500 per precinct cost per election. I have provided a cost analysis of the anticipated election costs for your review and a Resolution covering the designation of poll workers and VSTs. uw., 1 vu VY viKGi N. duu JL vumumcs xequu'eq ny rrecmc[: Uama Beach RUN DATE: 12/09/200 MAX OF 1000 VOTERS PER BOOK/200 VOTERS PER IVOTRONIC rgstvice4 Page 1 PRECINCT VOTERS BOOKS POLL WORKERS IVOTRONICS ACTIVATORS *Totals For*108 R. 1 0 0. 0 0 *Totals For* 1 S 1,089 2 6 5 2 101s For* 2 S 1,919 2 8 10 4 *Totals For* 3 S 25 0 0 0 0 *Totals For* 4 S 1,225 2 6 6 2 *Totals For* 5 S 2,103 3 9 10 4 *Totals For* 6 S 1,744 2 7 9 3 *Totals For* 7 S 1,441 2 7 7 3 *Totals For* 8 S 1,275 2 6 6 2 *Totals For* 9 S 1,081 2 6 5 2 *Totals For* 10 S 2,042 3 9 10 4 *Totals For* 11 S 35 1 4 3 1 *Totals For* 12 S 2 0 0 0 0 *Totals For* 13 S 1,674 2 7 8 3 *Totals For* 63 V 71 1 4 3 1 *Totals* 15 15,727 24 79 82 31 CITY OF DANIA BEACH PRECINCT NUMBERS & LOCATIONS FEBRUARY 11, 2003 PRIMARY ELECTION MARCH 11, 2003 GENERAL ELECTION • 1-S COMBINED W/ 12S 10-S DANIA BEACH CITY HALL OAK HILL CONDOMINIUM CONFERENCE ROOM 5150 SW 40TH AVENUE 100 WEST DANIA BEACH BLVD.

Tabulation Tasks • The Supervisor of Elections will perform the following tasks related to the tabulation of ballots for counting: 1. The tabulation equipment will be programmed to count the votes cast in the Municipal election. 2. Test ballots will be prepared from which it can be determined if the equip ment is properly programmed. (i.e. Logic 81 Accuracy Test) 3. The Broward County Canvassing Board will conduct a Logic and Accuracy test to ascertain that the equipment will correctly count the votes cast for all offices/questions as required by Section 1013612(1 ), Florida Stat- utes. 4. The Broward County Canvassing Board will canvass the returns. F. Legal Notices 1. Municipalities are responsible for the cost and performance of the follow- ing activity: Providing legal notices including, but not limited to: a. Notice of the Municipal Election (Section 100.021, F.S.) as well as any special election or referendum (Section 100.342, F. S.) b. Publication of sample ballot (Section 101 .20, F.S.) c. Publication of polling places if other than those used by the County and mailing of notices to the voters. (Please see the following page for copy of statutes.) 2. The Supervisor of Elections will be responsible for the following legal ads: a.

Election Charges Basic election charges have changed significantly due to the complexity of the new iVotronic voting equipment. While the charges have not been finalized, they will probably be $500 per precinct and that will include precinct supplies and equipment, precinct registers, Canvassing Board charges and programming costs. This does NOT include the cost of ballot layout and printing, mail ballot layout and printing or absentee ballot charges. Those charges will be added to the final invoice. in addition, poliworker salaries, polling place rentals fees, if applicable, and delivery of voting equipment are paid directly by you. Florida Statutes permit combining of precincts meeting certain criteria. if a Mu- nicipality requests space on a countywide ballot, and due to that request, combining precincts is not possible, the municipality will bear all the costs for that precinct including pollworkers and polling place fees. B. Voting Equipment It is the responsibility of the Municipality to arrange the pick up and return of the voting equipment and to coordinate this with the Voting Equipment Center by calling (954)765- 4377. All voting equipment MOIST be transported by a licensed mover, or in the case of smaller Municipalities, may be picked up by the Municipality in a CLOSED truck. The equip- ment will NOT be allowed to leave the Voting Equipment Center, which is located at 529 SW 2 Avenue in Fort Lauderdale, in an open truck with a tarpaulin or such. • C. Cellular Phones Since not every polling place has access to a telephone on election day, our office has obtained cellular phones for select precincts (particularly schools). Currently, we have identified over 400 precincts as needing a cellular phone to communicate with our office on election day. The cost for use of the phone is $10.00 per precinct and $.25 per minute of air time plus applicable taxes. These charges apply only for stand alone elections and will be included on your Election Invoice. D. Mail Ballot Elections Pursuant to F.S. 101 .6102, a mail ballot election may be called by a Mu- nicipality; however, the following type elections may NOT be conducted by mail ballot: 1. an election at which any candidate is nominated, elected, retained, or recalled; or 2. an election held on the same date as another election, other than a mail ballot election, in which the qualified electors of that political subdivision are eligible to cast ballots. (Section 101 .6102(2)(a)(b), Florida Statutes) The Supervisor of Elections will be responsible for mailing a mail ballot election ballot to each eligible voter as prescribed in F.S. 101 .6103. The tabulations and canvassing of such • election will be the same as a normal election. The charge for such election is $1 .50 per ballot plus postage. Is IV. Pollworkers A. Recruitment and Assignment 1. The Municipality will recruit, hire and assign pollworkers for the Election. If the Municipality desires that our office assign the pollworkers, a contract will be executed by the Municipality and the Supervisor of Elections to that ef- fect. 2. The Supervisor of Elections will provide to the Municipality, upon request, a list of residents who are on file as having worked or wish to work as pollworkers from which the Municipality may recruit and hire. This information may be ordered in a variety of formats. B. Training At no charge, the Supervisor of Elections will train the pollworkers at a time and a site selected by the Supervisor of Elections. The Municipality is responsible if any rental fee is charged by the facilities used for training. Whenever possible, rent free locations will be used. C. Compensation The Municipality may set its own pay scale. As of 1 1/5/02, the current Broward County rates are as follows: Clerk ........................... $140.00 ® Assistant Clerk .............. $110.00 inspectors..................... $105.00 Deputy......................... $105.00 Alternates .................... $115.00 Training ......................... $30.00 D. Spanish/Creole Precincts Based on Federal legislation, the Justice Department has concluded that Broward County provide election information in Spanish where a need has been determined. The Supervi- sor of Elections and an advisory board comprised of several Spanish speaking community leaders has designated 32 precincts (41), 51), 14D, 64Q, 65Q, 66Q, i OR, 67R, 47V, 49V, 5OV, 51 V, 14W, l 5W, 17W, 18W, 26W, 27W, 28W, 30W, 31 W, 18X, 29X, 58X, 8Y, 12Y, 13Y, 18Z, 36Z, 43Z, 54Z and 75Z) as Spanish spesking. If any of these precincts are within your Municipality, you will be responsible for hiring a Spanish speaking pollworker for Spanish speaking voters. In addition, these precincts will require instructions and notices to be printed in Spanish. It is the responsibility of the Municipality to translate and print any material other than the ballot for the election. These additional supplies should be taken into consideration when developing your election budget. While there is no mandate to provide information in Creole, the County has identified 61 precinnts that have large Creole speaking populations. Those preciccts are 24A, 30A, 31 A, 32A, 35A, 7C, 8C, 16C, 22C, 28C, 33C, 36C, 37C,47C, 48C, 50C, 81), 14D, 191, 1 K, 2 K, 6 K, 7K, i OK, 11 K, 14K, 15 K, 6L, 7L, 18 L, 2 4L, 1 N, 2N, 3N, 3 5N, 1 P, 2 P, 4P, 9P, 31 R, 32R, 33R, 35R, 36R, 37R, 68R, 69R, 78R, 79R, 89R, 98R, 104R, 105R, 106R, 107R, 8Z, 9Z, I OZ, i 1 Z, 13Z and 76Z. iR V.
