Proposed Process and Timeline
Population of districts as equal as possible
Districts must consist of geographically compact contiguous territory District boundaries shall approximate election precinct boundaries established by the Board of Supervisors of the County of Alameda Rules Committee meeting 1/26/2022 comments:
During the redistricting process, don’t take the existing Councilmembers out of their districts It is ok to have district populations on the lower end if housing projects are proposed to be built in that district Straighten boundaries where possible ex. Manor Blvd at Manor Branch Library Minor adjustment is ok
Current Criteria Consideration
The Manor neighborhood is split between two districts but is a very large neighborhood.
How did these boundaries get laid out originally, was it based on some historical bias, redlining? District boundaries would be more important if voting occurred within districts only.
What are the significance of districts if they are voted at large and there is no money specifically allocated to specific districts for their needs? Consider large district boundary changes for the 2030 census.
Community Meeting comments
Update boundaries to put industrial areas more evenly across districts instead of concentrating them in District 3 and 6. This can be looked at with the 2030 census.
Move boundary between District 1 and 2 along Sybil Ave to the south of SLHS Move boundary between District 2 and 3 to Washington Ave Scenario 1 is the simplest change to meet the criteria outlined.
