The resolution SCR1036 proposes an amendment to the Arizona Constitution, specifically adding Section 8 to Article XIII. This amendment stipulates that in cities or towns with a population of 500,000 or more that elect council members by district, ward, precinct, or other geographic designations, only voters who are qualified electors of that specific area will be eligible to vote for council member candidates in primary, general, runoff, or other elections. This change aims to ensure that only those directly affected by the elected officials can participate in the voting process for those positions.

The resolution requires the Secretary of State to present this proposition to voters during the next general election. If approved by the voters and proclaimed by the Governor, the amendment will take effect. The resolution indicates that there is no anticipated fiscal impact on the state General Fund associated with this legislation.
