To assist with the completion of a redistricting study in an inclusive, transparent, and comprehensive manner, and in order to garner community input on redistricting, the Board of Directors established a Redistricting Advisory Committee (Committee). The Committee consists of seven members, with each Board member appointing one member.
Below are the members of the public who have been selected to lead the redistricting effort for the Valley Water Board of Directors.
The Redistricting Advisory Committee completed all of its public outreach meetings for each of the seven electoral districts, consistent with the Board’s criteria for developing a draft redistricting map.
On January 12, 2022, the Redistricting Advisory Committee voted unanimously by roll call vote to recommend bringing Plan 2 of the redistricting maps to the Board of Directors meeting for consideration. On January 25, 2022, the Board of Directors adopted final new electoral district boundaries, as recommended by the Redistricting Advisory Committee.
The Committee is now disbanded.
