Quy trình tái phân chia khu vực thành phố San Bernardino
Every ten years, districts must be redrawn so that each district is substantially equal in population. This process, called redistricting, is important in ensuring that each city councilmember represents about the same number of constituents. In the City of San Bernardino, the Mayor and City Council are responsible for drawing ward districts. Redistricting is done using U.S. Census data, which was released in August, 2021.
Redistricting determines which neighborhoods and communities are grouped together into a ward for purposes of electing a councilmember.
The Mayor and City Council will seek input in selecting the next ward map for our City Council. You have an opportunity to share with the Mayor and City Council how you think ward boundaries should be drawn to best represent your community.
You can contact the City Clerk at 909-384-5002 or Rocha_Ge@sbcity.org to find out more about how the process works.
You can find a map of the City’s current wards here.
To the extent practicable, district lines will be adopted using the following criteria: (1) geographically contiguous districts, (2) the geographic integrity of local neighborhoods or communities shall be respected in a manner that minimizes its division, (3) geographic integrity of a city shall be respected in a manner that minimizes its division, (4) easily identifiable boundaries that follow natural or artificial barriers (rivers, streets, highways, rail lines, etc.), and (5) lines shall be drawn to encourage geographic compactness. In addition, boundaries shall not be drawn for purposes of favoring or discriminating against a political party.
The City Council will reach out to local media to publicize the redistricting process. Also, we will make a good faith effort to notify community groups of various kinds about the redistricting process. Our public workshops and public input hearings will be provided in applicable languages (e.g., Spanish) if residents submit a request 72 hours in advance. The City Council will notify the public about redistricting public workshops and public input hearings, post maps online before adoption, and create a dedicated web page for all relevant information about the redistricting process.
The City Council will be holding public hearings and public input workshops to receive public input on where district lines should be drawn. Those public workshops and public input hearings will be held on:
