Ballots for the April 4 city of Durango election were mailed Friday, and residents should receive them early this week. But it could take a week for them to arrive, Deputy City Clerk Chris Harlow said.

Ballots must be returned by 7 p.m. April 4, and can be mailed in or dropped off at two locations: The Durango city clerk’s office inside City Hall, 949 East Second Ave., or at the 24-hour drop box at the La Plata County clerk’s office, 98 Everett St., Suite C.

Remember to place your ballot in the secrecy sleeve provided and to sign it.

Walk-in voting will start Monday at the Durango city clerk’s office. The polling place will be open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. every business day until Election Day.

On April 4, the city clerk’s office will be open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.

Bring an ID to vote in person so the city clerk’s staff can verify that you are registered to vote.

To register, visit the Colorado Secretary of State’s website or you can register in person the La Plata County Clerk’s office.
