21-PISD and PJC to share redistricting resourcesCITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM BRIEFING SHEET Submittal Date: Originaring Department: Presented By: Agenda Item No.: 12/10/10 Council Date: City Manager Kevin Carruth 21. 12/13/10 RECOMMENDED MOTION: Not an action item. POLICY ISSUE(S): Redistricting BACKGROUND: Following every decennial census, all political jurisdictions are required substantiate their existing electoral district boundaries or make adjustments to accommodate demographic changes since the last census. Census data for use in redistricting is expected to be released by March 2011 and the redistricting process has to be completed by 2012. City staff has coordinated efforts with Paris Independent School District and Paris Junior College to share redistricting resources in arder to reduce expenses for all three entities since we all share more or less the same boundaries (and in the case of PJC the same election district boundaries). The Mayor and City staff, together with Superintendent Trull and President Anglin met with Mike Morrison last month to discuss the process. Mr. Morrison and his partner David Guinn are Professors at the Baylor Law School and their firm, Guinn and Morrison, has been involved in redistricting issues in Texas for over 30 years and is highly regarded in this field. The City Manager has firsthand experience with the firm following the 2000 Census. Please see the accompanying profiles for Professors Guinn and Morrison. Staff needs direction from Council on how it would like to proceed.
