Colorado Springs City Clerk Sarah Johnson has released a preliminary redistricting plan, which would set the boundaries for City Council districts for the next four years. Residents can view the preliminary City Council district map and provide feedback at ColoradoSprings.gov/2024Redistricting. The City will hold a public hearing on the plan on Wednesday, Oct. 30 at 3:30 p.m. at the City Administration Building in Suite 102. 

The release of the preliminary plan follows seven redistricting public meetings in September that gathered feedback from residents to help inform the final map. Colorado Springs is split up into six City Council Districts, each with an elected councilperson to represent the people living there. Every four years, the City Clerk is required by City Charter draw the six City Council district boundaries to ensure districts remain comparable in population as the City changes in population. 

“The release of the preliminary City Council redistricting plan reflects our commitment to transparency and community engagement throughout this process,” said Johnson. “We encourage residents to review the plan, provide feedback or attend the public meeting to learn more.”  

City Council appointed a volunteer District Process Advisory Committee in June 2024. The Committee has gathered citizen input via public meetings and surveys and providing this feedback to the City Clerk. The districts were last re-aligned in 2020. Districts must be substantially equal in population, contiguous, and comply with Voting Rights Act and other pertinent laws. The redistricting map is set by the city clerk, and is not approved by the Mayor or City Council. 

The City Clerk will prepare the final district report on setting the district boundaries no earlier than Nov. 4 and no later than Dec. 2.
