City of Tucson Notice of Public Hearing

Redistricting of Wards

Every four years the boundaries of the six wards of the City are reviewed to determine whether adjustments are necessary to equalize the population in each ward.  The Mayor and Council have established a citizens committee to assist with this effort.

The Redistricting Advisory Committee encourages public participation in the redistricting process and wants to hear from you. A public hearing will be held to gather information from the public regarding ward redistricting. 

The preliminary redistricting plans will be on display at the public hearing and are available for public inspection during normal business hours at the City of Tucson, City Clerk’s Office, City Hall, 255 West Alameda, 9^th floor. 

Additionally, the plans are available on the City Clerk Elections web page:  http://cms3.tucsonaz.gov/gov/elections
