November 7th update: Eight Council-requested revised versions of maps 116 and 128

Note: the “Focus Maps” identified by the Council on October 3rd, including the original maps 116 and 128, remain under consideration along with these new maps.

Map 116b – PDF map – PDF demographic profile of proposed districts

(Moves eastern sliver from D4 to D3, then rotates areas to balance populations)

Map 116c – PDF map – PDF demographic profile of proposed districts

(Keeps all of “Lake 2” in one District (D4) and adjusts the other districts to balance populations)

Map 116d – PDF map – PDF demographic profile of proposed districts

(116b adjusted to have as close to zero population deviation as possible)

Map 116e – PDF map – PDF demographic profile of proposed districts

(Alternative approach to 116b that also moves the eastern sliver from D4 to D3, but then balanced populations in an alternative manner)

Map 128b – PDF map – PDF demographic profile of proposed districts

(Revision of 128 that balances D5 by taking out area east of Ridge Route Dr, instead of the area west of Ridge Route Dr, and population balances by moving the neighborhood adjacent to El Toro Memorial Park from D3 to D2)

Map 128c – PDF map – PDF demographic profile of proposed districts

(128/128b adjusted to have as close to zero population deviation as possible)

Map 128d – PDF map – PDF demographic profile of proposed districts

(A similar idea to 128 — with districts extending the length of the city as much as possible to blend communities across Council districts — but with the south also divided)

Map 129 – PDF map – PDF demographic profile of proposed districts

(128 revised to extend all four length-of-the-city districts to the northeast end of the city, including having two Council districts representing portions of Portola Hills)

October 3rd update: Council Narrows the Focus to Five Maps

At their October 3rd meeting, the City Council unanimously decided to narrow the list of maps down to five maps: the existing maps 109, 110, 115 and 116, and a new map, labeled map number 128.

You can review these maps on the interactive viewer, or print out maps and demographic profiles from the following links:

What do you think of the Draft Maps?
Now that they are posted, the Council wants to hear what you like and dislike about each map.

The Council wants to know not just which map(s) you like or dislike, but why you feel that way about each map. These are the first drafts, not necessarily the final maps, and future versions can include revisions aimed at addressing the concerns raised by residents.

Please take the time to look at them and share your thoughts, either by email to LakeForest@NDCresearch.com, by letter, at a Council meeting, or using the contact form.

And, as a reminder, you can still draw your own revisions to any of the posted Draft Maps. See the “Draw a Map” page for instructions and data to do so.

=== All of the Pre-October 3 Meeting Draft Maps ====

This viewer is an easy-to-use way to review and compare maps, as it allows you to zoom in and out on the map details and to change the base map from streets to satellite view or topographical maps. It also allows you to add overlays for Population Unit borders and labels (from the “Draw a Map” page kits) and for Homeowner Association boundaries. But it does not allow you to create or edit a map.

Summary reports on the draft maps from the City’s demographic consultant:

1. Comments provided by the members of the public to accompany their map proposals
2. Election year sequencing options for each map (does not include maps requested November 7th)
3. Summary of key statistics for each map (does not include maps requested November 7th)

Note: some of the maps submitted by residents have been slightly modified by NDC to ensure contiguity of the districts and to assign any territory that was inadvertently unassigned. As a result, the demographic numbers may differ slightly from the original submission.
