As part of the arduous task of creating new city council districts that align with city charter guidelines, local officials are conducting a series of informational meetings regarding redistricting.
The St. Petersburg City Charter requires redistricting every 10 years in conjunction with U.S. Decennial Census. The Citizens Redistricting Commission (CRC) creates and recommends the new city council districts and has 60 days to submit its report to council members, which includes an updated map and description of recommended changes.
