The City Secretary serves as Elections Administrator to provide
fair and legal City of Colleyville elections efficiently. As such,
the City Secretary ensures the annual municipal elections are
held in compliance with local, state and federal election laws
and regulations. This office does this by fostering an excellent
partnership with the Tarrant County Election Administrators
for election services and equipment, which provides a cost
savings to the City. In addition to municipal elections, the
City Secretary facilitates and coordinates early voting for
county, state and federal elections. In an effort to go green,
the City Secretary’s Office provides all forms, including the
candidate packet on the City’s website. As the local filing
authority, the City Secretary receives and makes available to
the public all candidate applications and campaign finance
reports. The Office actively promotes public education of the
municipal elections. Citizens can locate information, relative to local,
state, and federal elections, such as Early Voting locations, Election Day polling locations,
sample ballots, and instructions for voting by mail ballot on the City’s website.
