Many municipalities need to redraw municipal ward and district boundaries after the Federal Census. Constitutional doctrines, judicially mandated standards, voting laws, and local law, all influence municipal redistricting. Not only do certain charters mandate that a reapportionment order be adopted by the legislative body within a specified period of the publication of census results, but they also provide for the appointment of a district commission to study the data and establish a district strategy. These jurisdictions may sometimes merely re-enact their current proposal by meeting procedural guidance if amendments are not necessary.
The City/County Edition of Maptitude for Redistricting is the best software and data package to get the job done. This version comes with the data for your city or county, all ready to use.
