Redistricting Meetings - Review Draft Map Scenarios

October 26th, 2021 - 9:58am

The Marin Community College District (MCCD) Board of Trustees is changing the way Trustees will be elected.

In the past, Trustees were elected "at-large," where each Trustee was elected by all voters throughout Marin County. Under the new system, Trustees will be elected by voters from within the area a Trustee would represent. Trustees will also be required to live in the area they are representing. This type of election, called a By-Trustee-Area election, is to ensure there is better representation for all communities who live within MCCD's boundaries.

In following the California Voting Rights Act and the Elections and Education Codes, MCCD is holding two more public hearings to show the draft maps and hear from the community before the maps are finalized. The draft map will become available seven days before the November 9, 2021 public hearing. An announcement will be made once draft map scenarios are available. Please be sure to check it out!

MCCD encourages you to attend and give feedback at one of the two meetings or through MCCD's redistricting webpage.

MCCD Public Redistricting Meetings will be held:
Tuesday, November 9, at 5 p.m.  
Tuesday, December 14, at 5 p.m.

Please visit http://www1.marin.edu/redistricting for more detailed information.

We look forward to hearing from you!
