Agenda Item
Resolution - City Secretary:
Consider a resolution adopting redistricting criteria to apply to development of new districting plans.
Item Summary
The City Council has certain responsibilities for redistricting the City Councilmember Districts, under federal and state law. A review of the 2020 Census data reveals that a population imbalance exists among the City Councilmember Districts, requiring redistricting of those districts. It is the City's intent to comply with the Voting Rights Act and will all other relevant law. Therefore, a set of established redistricting criteria will serve as a framework to guide the City in the formulation and consideration of districting plans. Redistricting criteria will provide the City a means by which to evaluate proposed plans, and will assist the City in its efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state laws.
