Background:
- From the San Diego Union Tribune: Volunteers redrawing San Diego’s City Council district boundaries approved a tentative map Friday (10/29/2021) that keeps UC San Diego connected to La Jolla but separates part of University City from both by dividing that neighborhood in half. The volunteer redistricting panel said residents should expect the final tentative map they are scheduled to adopt next Thursday (11/04/2021) to look mostly similar to the map the panel approved Friday (10/29/2021). “I don’t think it’s going to probably vary radically,” said Redistricting Commission Chairman Tom Hebrank, who is the chief author of the map approved Friday.
