Dear Casey:
On February 29, 2020, this office received your amended plan, timetable, and instructions for the following
mail ballot election(s) to be held on May 5, 2020:
♦ City of Bozeman Parks and Trails District Creation
After review, this office hereby approves the above plan, timetable, and instructions for the election. The
election must be conducted in compliance with Title 13, Chapter 19 of the Montana Code Annotated and
Rule 44, Chapter 3, Subchapter 27 of the Administrative Rules.
Also, Title 13, Chapter 2, Section 301 of the Montana Code Annotated now requires county election
administrators to publish notice of the close of voter registration for all elections being conducted within
a county – including school elections conducted by the school clerk. This will require coordination
between the county elections office and school clerks to ensure that notices of the close of registration
are published per the approved timetable.
Sincerely,
Conner Gagnon
