What: ward boundary changes recommended by the Ward Boundary Commission.
Where it stands: The Commission's report was on the 2026-10-20 Council agenda, and recommended ward adjustments are on the 2026-11-10 agenda. The Commission itself met on 2026-10-05 (and on 2026-08-17 and 2026-08-31, before the tracked window).
A resident asked in public comment that an area west of Kenser Road be placed in the Fourth Ward rather than the Seventh, and that maps not be redrawn more often than every ten years.
The Ward Boundary Commission presented its final report with a unanimous 6-0 recommendation (one member absent). The map brings all seven wards within 10% of the 1,976-voter ideal. No vote; the item goes to the November 10 agenda, and the ordinance must be introduced by December 8 for the upcoming elections.
Approval of the Commission's report and recommended ward boundary adjustments listed under new business. Per the October 20 minutes in the packet, the ordinance's first reading is expected by December 8. Outcome not yet recorded.
