Workshop: Principles for CAC Redistricting
Special Guest Kristen Roselli, Community Services Director
5:30 p.m., Feb. 17th, 2010
Room 305 of city hall (to be confirmed)
Part 1) Review the proposal laid out by Dwayne at the January meeting--is everyone in agreement with the process?
Part 2) What do chairs feel should be the guiding principles, if any, for the creation of new districts and the changing of boundaries for the existing districts? What factors do chairs feel need to be considered, and in what way? Examples mentioned so far include:
- other existing districts like fire, police, etc.
- how to define natural boundaries
- demographic diversity
- neighborhood unification
***Note: It's especially important that representatives from Umstead, North and Northeast be present to give feedback at this discussion, since their CACs will be affected by this process first.
