Extended Public Comment Period:
Submit all comments and proposed redistricting plans by Friday, July 29
at 4:45 p.m.

All plans submitted to the City for consideration must:

  • Be in writing;
  • Be based on the 2020 federal Census;
  • Redistrict the entire City so that Council may assess its impact on protected minority groups
  • Conform to redistricting criteria in Sec. 3 of the City’s Redistricting Resolution.

People may propose that certain voting precincts, neighborhoods, or locations be included in a specific district.
