SUMMARY This resolution identifies criteria which will guide the establishment of electoral districts consistent with legal requirements, and which address other concerns and considerations important to the City. 3. RECOMMENDED ACTION Approve Resolution No. 11178. 4. FISCAL IMPACT The total costs associafed with :the transition from at-large eletions to district=based : elections is unknown at this time, however, staff estimates.the costs could:exceed several hundred thousand dollars. A request for appropriation of funds.will be presented to City Council when the estimate becomes precise. 5: STRATEGIC-PLAN .GOALS Goal 2: Be a fiscally healthy community a. Expend fiscal resources responsibly. Goal 4: Provide outstanding public service a. Obtain, implement, and evaluate public input into our services and programs. 6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND In April 2019, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 11155 to initiate the, transition to district-based elections. A critical component of that process is establishing district boundaries.. As part of that process, the City conducted two community meetings in June ITEM�� I 1 07/23/2019 to receive input from the public related to considerations pertaining to the composition of district boundaries. At tonight's meeting, City Council will receive a report from the NDC, City's hired demographer, regarding input received at the two community meetings. Meeting minutes and notes are included for each of the meetings as Attachment B for the June 13, 2019 meeting and as Attachment C for the June 26, 2019 meeting. The next step in the districting process is for the City Council to adopt a resolution that indicates a list of criteria to guide the establishment of electoral districts. Based on feedback received from the community meetings, legal requirements, traditional districting criteria, and the unique circumstances of the City of Orange, Attachment A is proposed Resolution No. 11178 that lists the draft criteria, which can be summarized as follows: 1. Districts shall be equal in population 2. Boundaries shall not be gerrymandered 3. Boundaries shall not result in a denial or abridgement of the right of any citizen to vote on account of race or color 4. Boundaries may take into consideration communities of interest 5. Boundaries may consider compactness 6. Boundaries shall contain contiguous territory 7. Boundaries may observe topography and geography 8. Boundaries shall be created using whole census blocks The proposed resolution also reflects the intent to create six City Council districts, while retaining the voter-approved directly-elected mayor. Further, the resolution indicates the intent to implement district-based elections beginning with the November 2020 City Council elections. Utilizing established criteria, demographic statistics, and community input, the next step in the process is to direct the demographer to create draft maps. The public is still encouraged to submit feedback and proposed maps. Mapping tools were available at both community meetings and continue to be available to the public at the city's website or by calling the City Manager's office. Spanish translation was offered at both community meetings, and all information on the website is available in English and Spanish. The deadline for members of the public to submit maps is August 1, 2019. As such, all proposed draft maps, both created by the public and the demographer, will be available on the city's website for public review no later than August 20, 2019. It is anticipated draft maps from the demographer will be presented to the City Council for their review and feedback at the Adjourned Regular August 27, 2019 meeting. The proposed resolution sets the deadline of August 29, 2019 for submission of any amended maps the public would like the City Council to consider at its September 10, 2019 public hearing. It is anticipated that the City Council will select the map establishing electoral districts at that time. 7. ATTACHMENTS 1. Attachment A - Resolution No. 11178 2.

Other cities that have gone through this are Santa Ana, San Diego, School Districts and over 125 other cities are going through by districting at this time The reason cities go through this process: • No other city has won this type of lawsuit • Cities that have fought the lawsuit have resulted in multimillion dollar payouts • The most recent case in Santa Monica, the plaintiff requested 23 million dollars in the settlement The requirements for this process are: • We are legally obligated to hold two community meetings during districting process • You are given maps without any lines drawn, so you can review the maps and draw your own districts • You can submit your comments in writing to NDC or the City of Orange • This meeting is held to give residents the opportunity to give the City feedback What should be considered when drawing districts on a map • The information with the criteria in districting was reviewed Federal Laws—Equal Population The district needs to have an equal amount of people Traditional Districting Principles Communities of Interest Compact Contiguous Visible • Districting should be easy to understand The information was reviewed to advise what is relevant for districting: • You must look at majority of eligible voters • Maps that are available show both the Latino/Asian population • Supreme court has no description to define community of interest • Consider where you go to school, shop,roads you drive • We are looking for your input as to what would be a district that would work • Draw the streets you think would be a part of your neighborhood • Some communities of interest would like to be broken up so they would have more than one Council member for their area Options of how to submit a map for City Council review were given: • Maps available are in English and Spanish • You can express opinion in writing ATTACHMENT C Page 2 of 7 City of Orange—Community Districting Meeting 2019 � Meeting Minutes for June 13,2019 Page 3 • Review the map kits given to you when you came in the door • Online map tool The online map tool was reviewed in detail and information on how to submit a map was given. • If you have any questions or need help to walk through the online map tool you can contact NDC Community Conversation with maps began at 7:49pm Attendees broke up into groups and had discussions on communities of interest Meeting came back in session at 8:18 pm The following are comments from the community meeting attendees • East Orange and North Orange originally was thought to be together but a resident drove the city and she no longer thinks are should be together. • Don't consider topography alone. • Important for everyone to be accountable,but the main neighborhood is Orange • Everyone needs to have a say in all districts • We would want everyone represented; Chapman University has grown and has brought in lots of people • The Outlets of Orange need to be considered • Separate districts because we are such a large city • Four districts are too few; people in Old Towne and Chapman University and people in East Orange • There are different ways of life and different issues throughout the City of Orange. North Orange residents do not have anything in common with East Orange "Horse area.' North Orange area deals with homeless issues • 55 freeway should be considered as a boundary for a district • Four districts with a Mayor makes sense and this would give voters an opportunity to vote for a Mayor and Councilmember • Orange Park acres, north Orange and Old Towne need to be considered • We have to figure out how many districts we will have • All areas need to be represented • A rotating Mayor and expand to six districts • 7 districts may be too many Response from Justin Levitt and questions from attendees at 8:39pm • Government code allows General Law Cities like Orange a rotating Mayor, and to expand to six districts. • You would need to be a Charter city in order to have seven districts, which Orange is not a Charter City. • Q: How long of a comment can you leave for the Council review? Answer: You can submit as long of a comment as you would like to NDC or directly to the City. ATTACHMENT C Page 3 of 7 City of Orange—Community Districting Meeting 2019 Meeting Minutes for June 13,2019 Page 4 • Q: Can you email the Council? Answer: Yes you are able to email the Council your comments. • Q: City Attorney was asked if this case has gone before the judge?Answer: A settlement conference is scheduled in May of 2020. • Q: Is there an option to remain at large and not go to by-districting?Answer: The City Council adopted a resolution to move to by-districting and we are moving in that direction.
