shall be submitted to the electors of the precinct concerning sales on days of the

week other than Sunday: (A) “Shall the sales of (insert one or both of the following:  beer, or wine and mixed

beverages) by the package, under permits that authorize sale for off-premises consumption

only, be permitted in a portion of this precinct in which the status of the sale of

(insert one or both of the following:  beer, or wine and mixed beverages) as allowed

or prohibited is inconsistent with the status of such sale in the remainder of the

precinct?” (B) “Shall the sale of (insert one or more of the following:  beer, wine and mixed beverages,

or spirituous liquor), under permits that authorize sale for on-premises consumption

only, and under permits that authorize sale for both on-premises and off-premises

consumption, be permitted in a portion of this precinct in which the status of the

sale of (insert one or more of the following:  beer, wine and mixed beverages, or

spirituous liquor) as allowed or prohibited is inconsistent with the status of such

sale in the remainder of the precinct?” The board of elections shall furnish printed ballots at the special election as provided

under section 3505.06 of the Revised Code , except that a separate ballot shall be used for the special election.  One or both of the questions set forth in this section shall be printed on each

ballot and the board shall insert in the question and statement appropriate words

to complete each and a description of the portion of the precinct that would be affected

by the results of the election. The description of the portion of the precinct shall include either the complete listing

of street addresses in that portion or a condensed text that accurately describes

the boundaries of the portion of the precinct by street name or by another name generally

known by the residents of the portion of the precinct.  If other than a full street listing is used, the full street listing also shall

be posted in each polling place in a location that is easily accessible to all voters.  Failure of the board of elections to completely and accurately list all street addresses

in the affected area of the precinct does not affect the validity of the election

at which the failure occurred and is not grounds for contesting an election under section 3515.08 of the Revised Code .  Votes shall be cast as provided under section 3505.06 of the Revised Code .
