Meetings for New Hillsborough County Commission District Boundaries

Public Input Needed To Form New Hillsborough County Commission District Boundaries
The boundaries of Hillsborough County Commission Districts 1 through 4 are changing, and public input is needed on how that should be done.
Per County Charter, Commissioners must reapportion and redistrict every 10 years following the Federal Decennial Census. Each single-member district is to have a population representation as near to equal as possible. Since Commission Districts 5 through 7 are countywide districts and include all residents of Hillsborough County, this process will not affect them.
There are many ways to provide public input - attend one of ten public meetings, attend one of two public hearings, or comment online. Details on the Redistricting effort can be found on the Web at www.hillsboroughcounty.org/redistricting/.
Each public meeting listed below will follow the same format and present the same information. Possible new districting boundaries can be reviewed at each meeting site before the meeting, at the four regional libraries and the C. Blythe Andrews Library, and online at the Web link above.
