Santa Barbara County Redistricting Commission select top three maps
SANTA MARIA, Calif. - The Santa Barbara County Citizens Independent Redistricting Commission held a public meeting in Santa Maria to provide an update on its process Wednesday night.
In the meeting, five maps were looked at and the commission selected the top three.
The commission said its job is to make sure everyone is represented fairly, by drawing districts with an equal number of people in each.
Drawing districts is important, as it determines how the community is represented.
The public was invited to comment in person or over Zoom.
The meeting started at 6 p.m. at the Joe Centennial Betteravia Government Administration Building.
After five hours of discussion, the commission selected maps 818c, 821c, 822b.
