Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into an agreement with the Round Rock Independent School District for a joint City / School Election on May 4, 1991. STAFF RESOURCE PERSON: Joanne Land STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This resolution will allow the Mayor to enter into a contract with the Round Rock Independent School District for a joint City /School election May 4, 1991. This is the same type agreement we have had for the last several years. Staff feels this is the most economical way to hold these elections and easiest on the voters since this enables them to vote at only one location for both the City Council and School Board elecitons.
