The City Council is asking for your help planning our City’s change to by-district Council elections. Lake Forest, like over 60 cities and 150 school districts across the state, is making a change in how voters elect the City Council.

Beginning in 2018, City Council members will be elected district by district, instead of the current at-large citywide elections in which all voters have the ability to vote for all City Council seats.

We need your help to make this change!

​The primary goal when drawing Council election districts is to draw lines that keep neighborhoods together. So the Council wants to know: what do you consider the boundaries of your neighborhood?

On October 3rd, the Council selected five “focus” maps, numbered 109, 110, 115, 116 and 128. On November 7th, the Council requested eight new variations on “focus” maps 116 and 128. All of these maps are all available on the “Draft Maps” page.

More information will be posted to this page as the process moves forward.
