5 sometimes politicians are very hard to trust. <br />5. Citizens are smart and they can figure this out with time and access to information. <br />Anything the city council understands is well within the capacity of a <br />4 but it should be a hybrid commission and could use former city council members rather <br />than current ones <br />S. We need a citizens commission. When politicians decide their own districts conflicts of <br />interest are inevitable. The commission could work with one or two council members as <br />consultants. <br />4 We can still involve City Council members as a "consultant' to leverage their suggestions <br />and considerations. <br />5 we are familiar with the results of letting politicians drawing the districts. Let citizens do it, <br />where they have nothing to gain. <br />4 I support a citizen commission in principle but am now concerned that a citizen <br />commission can be manipulated in much the same way people fear it can be manipulated <br />by council. <br />5. Citizens can be coached on complexity issues <br />4, though could there be a mixed commission? Best of both worlds <br />S. I strongly support this. Individual politicians have too much personal interest and should <br />not bring that into drawing the map. A citizen commission would be much more <br />appropriate and representative <br />5, the spirit of the new law was to prevent the sort of gerrymandering we see in the newly <br />drawn district maps. I hope we can do better in 2020. <br />4- a citizen commission with info and guidance from the council would be best of both <br />worlds <br />
