City of Vista Voting Redistricting Process

1007

Every ten years, local governments use new census data to redraw their district lines to reflect how local populations have changed. Assembly Bill 849 (2019) requires cities and counties to engage communities in the re-districting process by holding public hearings and/or workshops and conducting public outreach, including to non-English-speaking communities.

In June 2017, the Vista City Council voted to change the way City Council members are elected, creating four districts within the city and adopting a district boundary map. The City of Vista is beginning a new re-districting process using the 2020 federal census data. Several public hearings will be held from mid-December through early 2022. The final map will incorporate the public’s input and will define the four City district boundaries. The district boundary lines will impact how residents elect their council members for the next 10 years.

In spring, 2022, the final district boundary map will be presented to the City Council for adoption.
