Clarify that Resolution No 5506-11-2021 allows redistricting maps timely submitted by individual City
employees to be considered by the Redish•icting Taslc Force; and
Allow the Redistricting Taslc Force to consider any additional resident-produced redistricting maps
submitted by December 17, 2021 at 5 pm.
DISCUSSION:
On November 16, 2021, due to the City Council's intended submission of a proposed map to the Redistt•icting
Taslc Fot•ce, the City Council passed Resolution No. 5506-11-2021 amending Resolutions 5373-04-2021 and
5488-10-2021 to remove the provision providing for the submission of a redistricting map drawn and submitted
by City staff to the Redistricting Task Fot�ce. However, unlcnown at that time to Council and the City Manager's
Office, four of the 19 proposed maps — Maps L, M, N, and Q— had already been produced and submitted by
individual City employees who are t�esidents of the City by the resident-produced map submission deadline of
November 12, 2021.
One reading of Resolution 5506-11-2022 holds that the term "City staf�' applies even to individual City
employee submittals and therefore would eliminate Maps L, M, N, and Q from considet•ation. To assut�e that
the Redistricting Taslc Fot•ce has the opportunity to evaluate and consider all redistricting maps for the City
before malcing a recommendation to the City Council, it is proposed that the Redistricting Taslc Force be allowed
to review maps proposed by individual City employees.
Additionally, the Lalce Como Neighborhood Advisory Council Redistricting Map was completed on Tuesday,
November 9, 2021 but unfortunately the full submission into the por-tal was not completed by the map
submission deadli��e. Therefore, to f�irtller provide for tlle oppo��tunity for all maps to be considered, it is
proposed that the deadline for submission of resident-produced maps to the Redistricting Taslc Force be
extended to Friday, December ] 7, 2021 at S:OOpm.
LEGALITY:
Tlle Law Department finds that this proposal is legal and witllin the authot•ity of the City Council.
