Redistricting Plan for City Wards and Precincts (Final Reading)Masterpiece on the Mississippi Dubuque AA- AmericaCity 1111.1 2007 TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager SUBJECT: 2011 Redistricting Plan for City Wards and Precincts Public Hearing DATE: July 21, 2011 Planning Services Manager Laura Carstens is recommending approval of the 2011 Redistricting Plan for City Wards and Precincts and the Precinct Agreement with Dubuque County. The City Council held a public hearing on the plan on July 18, and then tabled the plan to allow for minor corrections to the boundary description. The City of Dubuque is required to file a redistricting plan with the Secretary of State by September 1, 2011. If the City does not file a plan by this date, the State will redraw the ward and precinct boundaries without City input, and then assess the cost to the City. The number of City wards — four — has remained the same, although the boundaries have been changed to reflect population shifts, annexations and changes in legislative districts. The State has set population thresholds that require that each ward be as close as possible to an "ideal ward population ". The proposed ward boundaries were adjusted so that each ward is as equal as practical to an ideal population of 14,409. All proposed precincts meet the State requirement for a precinct population between 50 and 3,500 people. The number of precincts has been reduced from 21 to 20 as requested by the Dubuque County Auditor's Office to lower the cost of City elections. I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council approval. Michael C.

In addition to new maps for wards and precincts, the 2011 Redistricting Plan includes a City /County Agreement for Extraterritorial Precincts and an ordinance that includes the metes and bounds description of all of the proposed wards and precincts. The City Council held a public hearing on the 2011 Redistricting Plan for City Wards and Precincts on July 18, 2011, and then tabled the plan to allow for minor corrections to the metes and bounds description. BACKGROUND Cities with a population over 3,500 must review all ward and precinct boundaries to determine if redistricting is needed to comply with State law. The current ward and precinct boundaries were adopted in the 2001 Redistricting Plan, based on the 2000 Census population data. These boundaries were amended as territory was annexed to the city over the last ten years. After consultation with the Dubuque County Auditor's Office, we have determined that the City of Dubuque is required to file a redistricting plan with the State. Finalized plans are due to the Secretary of State by September 1, 2011. If the City does not file a 2011 redistricting plan by this date, the Secretary of State will redraw the ward and precinct boundaries without City input, and then assess the cost to the City. A redistricting plan must be approved by ordinance after a public hearing. Prior to adoption, the County Auditor must be given 7 —10 days to comment on the plan. The County Auditor's Office was provided a draft plan on June 29, 2011. The redistricting plan must be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the city once each week for three consecutive weeks after the plan has been approved by the Secretary of State. The last publication must occur at 30 days before the next general election. That date is Sunday, October 7, 2012. 2011 Redistricting Plan for City Wards and Precincts Precinct and ward boundaries become effective January 15, 2012. They do not affect this November's election. DISCUSSION Wards and Precincts The 2011 Redistricting Plan has been created in accordance with State code and in consultation with the Dubuque County Auditor's Office based on the 2010 Census population data. Maps of the proposed ward and precinct boundaries were distributed to the Council for the July 5 City Council meeting. These proposed boundaries meet all State requirements. The number of City wards — four — has remained the same, although the boundaries have been changed. The State requires that ward and precinct boundaries be adjusted to reflect population shifts, annexations and changes in legislative districts. The State recently redrew the legislative district boundaries for the City and County of Dubuque. With the new legislative districts, the ward and precinct boundaries had to shift as precinct boundaries cannot cross a legislative district boundary. The State has set population thresholds for wards that require that each ward be as close as possible to an "ideal ward population ". The boundaries of the proposed wards were adjusted so that the population of each ward is as equal as practical to an ideal ward population of 14,409 (which is %4 of the City's 2010 Census population of 57,637). The State also requires that each precinct's population be between 50 and 3,500 people. All proposed precincts fall within this range. With the small increase in city population from 2000 to 2010, it has been possible to reduce the number of precincts from 21 to 20. This reduction was requested by the Dubuque County Auditor's Office to lower the cost of City elections. Five maps have been provided for Council review. Map 1 - Proposed Precinct Alignment indicates the proposed new precinct boundaries. Map 2 - Proposed Precinct Realignment Current vs. Realignment superimposes the 2001 precinct boundaries over the new precincts to illustrate the proposed boundary changes. Map 3 - Proposed Ward Precinct Realignment illustrates the proposed new ward boundaries and the new precinct boundaries. Map 4 - Proposed Ward Realignment illustrates the proposed new ward boundaries. Map 5 - Proposed Ward Realignment Current vs. Realigned superimposes the 2001 ward boundaries over the new wards to illustrate the proposed boundary changes. Based on the population of each of the proposed wards, those City Council members elected by ward will represent approximately the same number of people, but some will be new constituents. 2 2011 Redistricting Plan for City Wards and Precincts Extraterritorial Precincts The County Auditor's Office has requested that the City of Dubuque expand some of the proposed precincts to include rural areas as "extraterritorial precincts ". These areas are adjacent to the city, but lie outside of the corporate limits. The map of the proposed ward and precinct boundaries delineates these extraterritorial precincts with a striped pattern. Precincts 1 and 4 in Ward 1 and Precinct 15 in Ward 3 have County areas within their boundaries. The County Auditor's Office is asking that the City expand its precincts to include these rural areas for a couple of reasons. First, because separate polling places and additional staff would be needed to serve these areas, County election costs would be higher. Second, because these areas do not meet the State's population requirements, the Secretary of State may reject a City redistricting plan that excludes these areas, and then require that the City include them. As was done with previous redistricting plans, a cooperative agreement between the City and County to combine these extraterritorial areas with the City precincts for voting purposes has been prepared by the County Auditor's Office. The inclusion of these extraterritorial areas does not create any additional expense for the City. Eligible residents of these County areas would not vote in City elections. If a shared City /County election were held, then these residents would be issued separate ballots for voting purposes. The County Auditor's Office will regulate all voting within all precincts in the city and in the county, including these extraterritorial precincts. RECOMMENDATION I recommend that the City Council review and approve the 2011 Redistricting Plan for City Wards and Precincts and the Precinct Agreement between Dubuque County and the City of Dubuque.
