CITY OF SHAKOPEE

Memorandum ~ t~ ~
TO: Mayor and City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Judith S. Cox, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Changing Precinct Boundaries
DATE: Apri129, 2008
BACKGROUND:
City Council is asked to adopt Ordinance No. 797 which adjusts the precinct boundary between
Precinct 9 and Precinct 11.
BACKGROUND:
In 2004, City Council divided Precinct 9 into two precincts by adding a Precinct 11. Because
precinct boundaries must follow a clearly recognizable physical feature, and because 17th Avenue
was not constructed to CR 83, the available options for boundaries for the new Precinct 11 were
limited. Now that 17th Avenue has been constructed to CR 83, it is advisable to change the
boundaries of Precinct 9 and Precinct 11.
It is proposed that the boundary between Precinct 9 and Precinct 11 be changed so that Precinct
11 would be expanded to include the area north of 17th Avenue and to the east at CR 83. The
boundary for Precinct 11 would be described as: beginning at TH 169 and Marschall Road,
south to Valley View Road, east to Independence Drive, north to 17th Avenue, east to CR 83,
north to TH 169 and west to Marschall Road.
The polling place for Precinct 11 (Shakopee Area Catholic Education Center) can better
accommodate the growing population than can the polling place for Precinct 9 (Cross of Peace
Lutheran Church).
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Status quo, make no boundary changes
2. Change the precinct boundaries as proposed between Precinct 9 and Precinct 11
3. Other

RECOMMENDATION:

Precinct 11.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
If Council concurs,
Offer Ordinance No. 797, Fourth Series, An Ordinance of the City of Shakopee, Minnesota,
Amending City Code Chapter 2, Section 2.20, Precinct Boundaries, and move its adoption.
