specified in the petition and to the elector who filed the
protest. At the time and place established in the notice, the
election officials shall hear the protest and determine the

Sec. 4301.334. (A) The privilege of local option conferred

signed by
electors of the municipal
corporation or unincorporated area of
the township in which the
community facility is
located equal in
number to at least
ten per cent of the total number of votes cast
in
the municipal corporation or unincorporated area of the

office
of governor at the most recent general election for that office
and
shall contain both of the following: (1) A notice that the petition is for the submission of the

the secretary of state under division (P)
of section 3501.05 of the Revised Code
and, within fifteen days

number of valid
signatures that will be required on a petition to hold an
election
in the municipal corporation or unincorporated area of the
township
in which the community facility is located on the
question specified in
section 4301.356 of the Revised Code. The petitioner shall, not less than thirty days before the
petition-filing
deadline for an election on the question
specified
in section 4301.356 of the Revised Code,
specify to the division
of liquor control the name and address of the

within the community
facility that it has received
the petition. Failure of the
petitioner to supply the name and address of any permit holder for

the
community facility as furnished to the petitioner by
the division invalidates
the petition. (C) Not later than the sixty-sixth day before the day of the
next
general or primary election, whichever occurs first, the
board shall examine
and determine the sufficiency of the
signatures on the petition. If the board
finds that the petition
is valid, it shall order the holding of an election in
the
municipal corporation or unincorporated area of a township on the
day of
the next general or primary election, whichever occurs
first, for the
submission of the question set forth in section
4301.356 of the Revised Code. (D) A petition filed with a board of elections under this
section
shall be open to public inspection under rules adopted by
the board. (E) An elector who is eligible to vote on the question set
forth
in section 4301.356 of the Revised Code or any permit holder
for or within the
community
facility may,
not later than four p.m.
of the sixty-fourth day
before the day of the election at which
the question will be submitted to the
electors, file a written
protest against the local option petition with the
board of
elections with which the petition was filed. Upon the filing of
the
protest, the board shall promptly fix a time and place for
hearing the
protest and shall mail notice of the time and place to
the person who
filed
the petition and to the person who filed the
protest. At the time and place
fixed, the board shall hear the
protest and determine the validity of the
petition.

a.m. and
midnight on Sunday for
consumption on the premises where sold at
licensed premises
where the sale

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.
Sec. 4301.355. (A) If a

election, to the board of
elections of the county in which the
community facility is located
an ordinance or resolution
requesting the submission of the
question set forth in this
section to the electors of the
municipal corporation or
unincorporated area of the township, the
board of elections
shall order that an election be held on that
question in the

of the township
on the day of the next primary or general
election, whichever
occurs first. The legislative authority or
board of township
trustees shall submit the name and address of

at the same time it submits the
ordinance or resolution. The
board of elections, within five days

certified mail to each permit holder that it
has
received the
ordinance or resolution. Failure of the
legislative
authority or
board of township trustees to supply the name and
address of each

invalidates the effect of
the ordinance or resolution. At the election, the following question shall be submitted to
the electors

of a township: "Shall the sale of beer and intoxicating liquor be permitted

questions set forth in section 4301.351 of the Revised Code in a
precinct vote
"yes" on question (B)(1) or
(C)(1), or, if
both
questions (B)(1) and (B)(2), or questions
