This change will affect only six propertic.- 1229, 1200, 1199, 1180, 1170 and 11'.7 Lyman Avenue. There are resi,4ences on four of the six properties. This change is requested to comply with Minnesota State Statute 214B.14, Subd. 5 and the notification from a resident in that area who felt the precinct boundary was in error. The law states precinct boundary lines shall follow visible, clearly r?cogonizable physical features. The current boundary clearly cuts through the involved lots.

The City Coun,-i 1 wi 1 ; have to approve the precinct boundary line change by motion, the notice of change must be posted for 60 aal s, t'.,e of fected voters must be not i f iecd and the change wi 1 1 have to he reflected in new precinct maps. The change will have to tie made before January 1, 1987, because no precinct changes can take place from January 1 in a.- year ending in 7 to January I in any year onding in 2. As you may be aware there will be re,listricting in 1992 and at that time there may be ether changes. I have been in contact with Marje Christianson, of the Election Division at lie in County regarding this matter and she is in concurrence that n is the way to correct the boundary line.
