Redistricting

As a result of data reported in the 2020 census, boundaries of EPCC’s elective districts needed to be redrawn in response to changes in population. The goal of redistricting is to ensure that the population of the trustee districts is roughly proportionate so one group’s vote isn’t devalued over another based-on population differences. In the Fall of 2022, EPCC underwent a redistricting process in order to get public input to address these population changes.


Public Redistricting Committee

After an open call for applications for individuals to serve on the Public Redistricting Committee, the Board of Trustees announced a committee at a Special Meeting of the Board of Trustees on October 5, 2022. The committee meetings will be open to the public and posted on this page once dates are selected.
