Feedback Sought on Proposed Gainesville Redistricting Map

Meeting

City of Gainesville recently issued the following announcement.

In advance of its March 31 special meeting, the Gainesville City Commission is seeking input from all neighbors on a proposed redistricting map that was discussed at the March 

28 special meeting.

Neighbors are asked to review the map, and provide comment. Ways to comment:

  • In person at City Hall at Thursday’s special meeting beginning at 1 p.m.
  • Via email to CityComm@cityofgainesville.org
  • Via eComment
The city’s charter mandates adjustments to the boundary lines of Gainesville’s four districts within two years of the completion of a U.S. Census. Redistricting is the drawing of 

congressional and state legislative districts to adjust for uneven growth in different parts of the state. This occurs once every 10 years immediately following the United States 

Census. Redistricting guidelines include adjusting district boundaries to maintain an equal number of voters in each district.

For more information about the city’s redistricting effort, view our redistricting webpage. Email questions to CityComm@cityofgainesville.org.
