(a) Whenever by law a question may be submitted to voters who are not electors of a municipality, the municipality may submit the question to a vote by electors and voters held in conjunction with an election. Except as otherwise provided, the general statutes shall apply to such vote. (b) (1) The procedures set forth in this subsection shall only apply if a municipality so chooses and only upon approval of such procedure by its legislative body or in any town in which the legislative body is a town meeting, by the board of selectmen. (2) Voters who are not electors shall vote by separate voting tabulator or paper ballot, containing solely the question, at one separate location which may be a separate room in the location at which electors vote. Such separate location shall be treated as a separate voting district and polling place for such voters, except that the registrars of voters shall appoint a moderator who shall be the head moderator for the purpose of this question only, and such other officials as the registrars deem necessary. The moderator of such separate location shall add the results of the vote by electors on the question to the results of the vote by voters who are not electors, and shall file such results in the office of the municipal clerk. The moderator of such separate location shall be the moderator for the purposes of a recanvass of a close vote on such question under section 9-370a . The head moderator of the town shall indicate on the return of vote of such question filed with the Secretary of the State that such return does not include the return of vote of voters who are not electors. (c) Voters who are not electors and who are entitled by law to vote by absentee ballot shall be entitled to vote by separate absentee ballot containing solely such question. Such absentee ballot shall be issued beginning on the thirty-first day before the election, or, if such day is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, beginning on the next preceding day. (d) The warning of the election shall include the location where voters who are not electors may vote.
