Learn about the redistricting process

The Independent Redistricting Commission – a body charged with creating a new district map that ensures fair and equal representation for all using factors such as population data, geography, demographics, and direct testimony from community members.

The July 10th Commission meeting included a presentation covering the redistricting process and timeline, history of Council districts in Berkeley, and the laws and regulations that govern the redistricting process. A video of the meeting will be published here when it is available. Community members will have an opportunity to give testimony to the Commission directly.

We hope you will participate in future redistricting meetings in the coming months. For questions or requests for accommodation, contact the City Clerk Department at redistricting@cityofberkeley.info or (510) 981-6908.
