Staff received a request from a member of Council to draft a letter of support for the Coconino County Board of Supervisors preferred legislative districts map. The letter and preferred map are included as attachments to this agenda packet. If the Council is supportive, staff will send the letter of support and preferred legislative map to the Independent Redistricting Commission. There will also be discussion on redistricting procedures moving forward.

The work of the Independent Redistricting Commission continues as draft maps are being discussed and adjusted. After agreement amongst the Commissioners is reached on the draft congressional and legislative maps, a public review process will begin, likely in early November.

The most current version of the draft maps created by the Independent Redistricting Commission can be found at https://redistricting-irc-az.hub.arcgis.com/pages/draft-maps. Legislative and Congressional district maps approved in 2011 can be found at https://irc.az.gov/maps/2011-maps
