Compiled by RADC Members - Tracy Wise and Jeff Poggi

Every 10 years, local governments use new data from the Census to redraw their district lines to reflect how local populations have changed. State law requires cities and counties to engage communities in the redistricting process by holding public hearings and doing public outreach, including to underrepresented and non-English-speaking communities. The City of Redlands is asking for your help to plan, draw, and redivide new City districts.

Email [email protected] to help draw maps.

The finalized maps that you will help create will define the five City of Redlands district borders, and these new districts will impact how you elect your Council Members for the next 10 years.

The primary goal when developing election districts is to draw lines that respect neighborhoods, history, and geographical elements.

Residents are invited to submit proposed City Council district boundaries by visiting https://drawredlands.org/draw-a-map.

The deadline is January 31, 2022, and maps can be sent to [email protected] or dropped off in person at Redlands City Hall, 35 Cajon Street, Suite 2, Redlands.

Upcoming City of Redlands public meetings are scheduled:
January 18, 2022 (6:00 pm, City Hall)
February 15, 2022 (6:00 pm, City Hall)
March 1, 2022 (6:00 pm, City Hall)
April 17, 2022 – adoption of the final maps
