A copy of U.S. Justice Department letter of July 18, 2006 stating no objection to the elections included as Exhibit C. The City of Glendale contracted with Maricopa County for election services such as space on their ballot, tabulation and polling places. Polling Places The May 15, 2007 Special Bond Election will have thirty polling places, with five in each of six districts. This is an increase of six polling places, one per district, from the last Special Election conducted on May 17, 2005. In the 2006 Primary and General, the City of Glendale candidates and propositions were on the Maricopa County. Maricopa County provided and precleared the polling places. The list of May 15, 2007 Special Bond Election polling places is included in Exhibit B, Resolution No. 4025, New Series; Exhibit D is the list of May 17, 2005 Special Election polling places. The City Clerk's Department has provided Maricopa County with a list of polling places.

Voter Information The Arizona State Statues require Voter Information Pamphlets be mailed to every household with a registered voter. However, the City of Glendale will print and mail Voter's Informational Pamphlets to every registered voter in the city for the May 15, 2007 Special Election.

The mailing of the information pamphlet to every registered voter is not required but will provide the voter with an official election document, acceptable as I identification at the polling place.
