Description/Analysis

 

Issue Detail: At the general election on November 8, 2016, the voters approved a measure that added article XII (§§ 170-179) to the City Charter, thereby creating the Sacramento Independent Redistricting Commission (the “SIRC”). The SIRC has exclusive authority to redraw council-district boundaries (§ 170(a)), is to conduct an open and transparent process with robust public input that will assist in the consideration of the boundaries (§ 170(b)(2)), and must be fully established by December 1, 2020 (§ 174(j)).

 

This is an opportunity for the staff who support the commission to introduce themselves to the commissioners and the community.

 

Policy Considerations: Sacramento City Charter article XII (§ 178) specifies the administration to support the Sacramento Independent Redistricting Commission.
