Start with the voter roll, ballot room hours and workplace release notices. It is the source used to decide how a public vote can serve residents whose work schedule changes by season; it is not the decision itself. The rule only works if the source describes conditions at the vote room at South Gate Hall.
Known: the current file counts 47 registered residents able to reach a ballot table during posted hours, compared with 51 in the prior window. Residents and workers submit accounts before the hearing closes. The entries have dates and a named clerk.
Disputed: The council measures the room’s open hours. Workers ask that release times and travel between districts also be counted. One side emphasizes the posted total; the other points to the last ballot interval overlaps the shift handoff at the east foundry.
Why it matters: the decision determines which residents can rely on the service and which staff must carry out the change. The file does not settle that by itself.
Next: The Year fourth, early thaw window 2 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The clerk will compare ballot marks with the workplace release board.
