Election Commission and Facilities Relocation Ad-hoc Committee 11/10/26

The Sumner County Election Commission and Facilities Relocation Ad-hoc Committee met on November 10, 2026, to develop a recommendation for relocating the Election Commission at the Union Road facility. Members agreed to recommend that the Commission remain there and receive approximately twice the space it previously occupied in the current building, with the exact layout determined through architectural planning. The committee voted to forward the recommendation to General Operations and seek budget support for an architect to prepare plans; remaining space would be available for future county use, including maintenance. Members discussed fire separation, access, and maintenance needs. No dollar amount, contract award, or vendor was identified.

The committee also reviewed edits to a facility-use policy, including a process for the mayor to approve temporary space use of less than seven days and referring longer-term or permanent requests for further approval. The revised document was to go to the county attorney for review before proceeding to General Operations. The ad hoc committee indicated its work was complete and adjourned.
