According to an e-mail from Councilor Dietrich, the source of population data and breakdown of districts are as follows:

Here are the numbers for the draft re-districting map I submitted based on the numbers I was given by BF&S.

Total 41,434 / 6 districts = 6905 (mean)

  • District 1 (blue ) 6850 -55 from mean
  • District 2 (red ) 6989 + 84 from mean
  • District 3 (yellow) 6835 -70 from mean
  • District 4 (grey ) 6938 +33 from mean
  • District 5 (pink ) 6923 + 18 from mean
  • District 6 (orange ) 6899 -06 from mean

TOTAL 41434

At the meeting, I asked and encouraged citizen and councilor involvement in the process of redistricting for our great City.  No definitive answer was given as to future workshops.
