What is Redistricting?
Sacramento County Board of Supervisor District Boundaries must be redrawn every 10 years using U.S. Census data in order to make the five districts as equal in population as possible and that each member represents about the same number of constituents.
Why is Redistricting Important?
Redistricting is important because it determines which neighborhoods and communities will be grouped together for the purposes of electing a board member. Residents have the opportunity to provide input on what kind of boundaries should be drawn to best represent their community.
How Can the Public Participate in Redistricting?
The County encourages participation by Sacramento County residents and will provide information through this webpage, on social media, via a Redistricting Info email distribution list, local media, and community-based organizations and partners. Information will include public workshops, public hearings, draft maps, how to draw boundary lines for your district, and more.
