services with Tarrant County Elections Administration.
The significant areas covered by the agreement are the designation of the Election

the selection of the election clerks, the training of the clerks, equipment use and set

The agreement allows for one polling location within Southlake
which will be at Southlake Town Hall. Jointly contracting with the
County allows Southlake voters the opportunity to vote anywhere
within the County during the period of early voting. On Election
Day, however, Southlake voters will be limited to voting only at
Southlake Town Hall. Please remember that Tarrant County no
longer announces unofficial results at the polls on election night.
Instead, election results will be released only at the Tarrant County
Elections Center in Fort Worth and will be simultaneously posted
on their website. This will delay the release of the unofficial results
until later in the evening but minimizes the possibility of the results
accidentally being misread. The estimated charge for this
agreement is $4,862.34. The exact amount owed will not be
calculated until after the May 10 election.
