RedistrictingProposal-2011

ALACHUA COUNTY, FL - The Alachua County Board of County Commissioners will hold a special meeting in the County Administration Building, Room 209 (Jack Durrance Auditorium) on Tuesday, September 6, 2011 at 1:30 p.m. 

The purpose of the meeting is to conduct a workshop to discuss redistricting of the County Commission seats.  The Constitution of the State of Florida and the Florida Statutes require that, after each 10-year census, the Board of County Commissioners divide the County into five districts whose population is as equal as possible. 

County staff will make a brief redistricting presentation on the process it used to create a map of proposed revised Commission districts based on numbers from the recently released 2010 census.  The Board will discuss the proposed map and seek public input on the new districts.   

For more information, contact the Alachua County Growth Management Department at 374-5249 or Jerry Brewington at glb@alachuacounty.us.
