San Diego Redistricting Commission

Section 5.1 of the Charter sets forth the procedure for redistricting. It calls for creation of a seven-member Redistricting Commission, which has sole and exclusive authority to adopt the City’s redistricting plan that sets the boundaries of City Council districts. This year, in response to a vote of the people, the Redistricting Commission will be adding a new Council district and be charged with dividing the City into nine Council districts.
