Welcome

The Redistricting Process

Every 10 years, local governments use new data from the U.S. Census to review their voting district boundaries to determine whether they need to be
adjusted to reflect any changes in the local population and its distribution amongst the current districts. State law requires cities and counties to engage communities in the redistricting process by holding public hearings and doing public outreach, including to underrepresented and non-English-speaking communities. The City of Moreno Valley is asking for your help to plan, draw, and identify new City voting districts.

The finalized maps that you will help create will define the boundaries for the four Moreno Valley City Council voting district, and these new district boundaries will impact how you elect your Council Members for the next 10 years.

The primary goal when developing voting districts is to draw lines that respect neighborhoods, communities of interest, shared history and geographical elements. As such, the City wants your important and valuable input!
