BACKGROUND With the transition to a paper-based voting system, the State deadlines for several election processes have been moved up. The Miami-Dade Elections Department has requested that the City modify the dates for candidate qualifying to no earlier than the 76th day and no later than the 73rd day prior to the date of the general election. The City's next General Election takes place on November 2, 2010, and with this change in the qualifying period, the dates would be from 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, August 17 to 4:00 p.m. on Friday, August 20, 2010. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Upon adoption, this Ordinance will be forwarded to the Miami-Dade County Elections Department.

Hines, Village Clerk City of Sunny Isles Beach 18070 Collins Avenue Sunny Isles Beach, FL 33160 Dear Ms. Hines: In planning for the 2010 election cycle, the Miami-Dade County Elections Department is requesting that your municipality modify the dates for candidate qualifying. With the transition to a paper-based voting system, the state deadlines for several election processes have been moved up. For instance, per Florida Statutes 1 01.62(4)(a), absentee ballots must be mailed to overseas voters 45 days before a general election. For the November 2, 2010 Sunny Isles Beach General Election, absentee ballots to overseas voters would have to be mailed to later than September 18, 2010. The qualifying dates for the 2010 General Election are currently scheduled to end on September 3, 2010. Unfortunately, this date will not give the Department sufficient time to prepare, print, and mail absentee ballots to overseas voters by the statutory deadlines. Given these constraints, it is imperative that the Elections Department receives all resolutions, candidate loyalty oaths, and any other documentation necessary to prepare the 2010 General Election ballot by August 20, 2010. It is respectfully requested that your board consider moving your qualifying dates, so that qualifying ends by our August 20,2010 deadline. Your prompt reply to this request is greatly appreciated. Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at 305-499-8509 or Rosy Pastrana, Deputy Supervisor of Elections, Operations at 305-499-8548.
