• Tuesday, March 20, 2018 at 6:30 P.M., or as soon thereafter as the matter can be heard; AND

To review the proposed district maps and demographics you can click on the links below or you can look at the interactive online version.

There are three options available: 

• Green Map; Green Map Demographics
• Yellow Map; Yellow Map Demographics
• Purple 2 Map; Purple 2 Map Demographics

Copies of the proposed district maps and sequencing of elections will also be made available for public inspection, or a copy provided for the cost of duplication, at the Office of the City Clerk, 291 N.
