Redistricting

About



The City of Taylor is divided into 4 single member districts and 1 at large district for election purposes. Based on the results of the 2020 Census the city is required to redistrict this year to be in compliance with the federal Voting Rights Act.  The City has hired Bickerstaff, Heath, Delgado, and Acosta law firm to conduct the  redistricting process.  The redistricting process will be complete by February 1, 2022 and will be used during the May 2022 general election.

At the September 23rd City Council meeting, the Council adopted Resolution R21-32, adopting criteria for redistricting which provides the City a framework to guide the City in the formulation and consideration of redistricting plans, and Resolution R21-34, adopting guidelines for redistricting which provide guidelines for citizens who wish to submit specific redistricting proposals.

If you are a registered voter in the City of Taylor and wish to submit a redistricting proposal, please consult Resolution R21-34 for specific guidelines on the process to submit a redistricting proposal.
