From Richard Hillyard (pompeyhccc@hotmail.com):
Burlington is in the midst of reviewing populations in our voting wards. This process, known as redistricting, may result in changes to our current ward numbers, ward boundaries, & representatives to City Council. Redistricting is required by the U.S. Constitution after the U.S. Census, with the non-partisan goal of equalizing the populations among different voting districts. You can learn more about redistricting in Burlington & participate in the process by attending one of the two remaining meetings.
I am the redistricting committee representative for Ward 1. Each Ward has one citizen rep who was selected during NPA meetings this fall. Contact me as needed. I hope you can attend one of these public "listening sessions". The Redistricting Committee will use public comments from these meetings, as well as future public surveys, to make suggestions on redistricting that City Council will consider, & ultimately voters will need to approve (likely in November of 2022).
