7.B. - Page 81 of 83 NDC Redwood City Plan Submitter Comments February 1, 2019 (Maps not listed did not have any comments submitted with them by the map submitter.) 7-005 Josh Cohn I think this map makes sense for a number of reaons. First each of the districts is within 555 people of the ideal population and the difference between the largest and smallest districts is less than 1,000. Second, the geographic regions are generally well balanced and adjacent to each other. District 1 comprises Redwood Shores; District 2 comprises Bair Island, Friendly Acres, and Redwood Village; District 3 comprises Downtown and Centennial; District 4 covers Edgewood Park, Mt. Carmel, Eagle Hill and Canyon; District 5 covers parts of Central and Roosevelt; District 6 covers Redwood Oaks and Palm; District 7 comprises Farmhill and Woodside Plaza. With the exception of District 7, the non -Hispanic white population is below 70% (75% voting age). Some districts have larger Hispanic populations while others have larger Asian populations. It is difficult to balance the Total CVAP but all of the zones are between about 5,000 and 8,400. 7-011 Rick Shulze I think this map makes sense because it has contiguous districts that meet the population criteria. 7-012 Ben Packer I think this map makes sense because of the 100+ maps I analyzed (programmatically), this one was the most favorable to the minority voting population when looking at balance across districts. There are 3 majority -minority districts, including 2 majority -minority districts among the Citizen Voting Age Population. It cuts through various neighborhoods (for example, Districts 3 and 7), which I realize goes against one of the criteria, but this has the effect of making the voting population more heterogeneous and having its representatives accountable for a broader range of issues. 7-013 Eddy Yerentov I think this map makes sense because it makes redwood shores it's own district, has a very small deviation percentage, does not have any partisan gerrymandering, it has no weird district lines, every district is connected, and it looks pretty good. 7-014 Darius Wiles I think this map makes sense because each district is formed from contiguous population units and meets the criteria for approximately equal district sizes. 7-015 Ben Packer This is a slight modification to my El Camino and Woodside plan where 6 of the districts overlap El Camino and the 7th overlaps Woodside that balances out a few of the districts a little better. Previous version comments: Every district in this map includes either the El Camino Real Corridor or Woodside Rd. so that everyone has a stake in the main thoroughfares and all councilmembers will be accountable to residents along those areas. Most neighborhoods are kept together and there are 3 majority -minority districts. There are some details that could be adjusted. 7-016 Jeremy Smith 225
