STRATEGIC PLAN GUIDING PRINCIPLES Excellence in Government Operations BACKGROUND On May 20, 2019, the City Council adopted an ordinance (Attachment A) adding Section 2.27.7 to Chapter 2, Article I "District Elections Ordinance" to the Redwood City Code establishing seven districts for the election of City Councilmembers, and establishing boundaries and the identification number of each district. In establishing district elections, the ordinance also requires that during the boundary drawing process, if technical adjustments are deemed necessary, the City Clerk shall advise the City Council of the adjustments. Upon completion of the district boundary drawing process, the City submitted the final Council approved district maps (Attachment B) to the San Mateo County elections office for review and approval. While the district maps met all the requirements, the County sought additional information regarding two specific parcels to determine which voting district each parcel would belong to.
