County Supervisors to Consider Redistricting Maps

The new boundaries are to be based on 2010 census data.

The San Diego County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday is set to consider whether to adopt new maps for their district boundaries.

The supervisors have the final say on five proposed districts created by a commission using 2010 census data.

The biggest proposed change from the current configuration is the shift of La Jolla from Supervisor Pam Slater-Price, who represents Rancho Bernardo, to Ron Roberts who now represents a landlocked area. Other districts would see minor adjustments.

County staff members also are scheduled to address a plan from the ACLU of San Diego and Imperial Counties, which says the proposed new districts violate the Voting Rights Act. The plan was submitted late, and staff has needed more time to go over the new information.

The supervisors also will hear a presentation about how the realignment of state and local government functions enacted by Gov. Jerry Brown will affect the county.
