• City population / Demographics
• Draft Map A

Things we will cover
Redistricting Criteria
FAIR MAPS Act (California Elections Code Section
21621)
• Substantially equal size ‐ people, not citizens
• Contiguous – districts should not hop/jump
• Maintain “communities of interest”
• Follow easily identifiable lines
• Keep districts compact – appearance/function
From COI to Maps
With more cities and counties using
community based redistricting, we
move redistricting out into the public,
with maps driven by Community of
Interest testimony.
• Input from community drives process
with multiple ways for the public to
engage.
• Rules for process emphasize the
importance of traditional criteria and
minimizing divisions of neighborhoods.
• Releasing maps for feedback –t o d a y w e
will see plans to spark more public
engagement.
