Subject: Adopt Resolution Urging the California Citizens Redistricting Commission to Keep Lake County, Napa County and Sonoma County Within the Same United States Congressional District

Executive Summary: (include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):

As your Board is aware, United States Congressional Districts are revisited every ten years following the decennial Census Process. In California, as a result of 2010's Proposition 20, the Congressional Redistricting Initiative, responsibility for establishing new Congressional Districts rests with the California Citizens Redistricting Commission.

Geographical proximity and common interests bind Lake, Napa and Mendocino Counties, and we have long and effectively shared common Congressional representation.

The Resolution attached for your consideration urges the California Citizens Redistricting Commission to keep Lake, Napa and Sonoma Counties within the same United States Congressional District.

Staff recommends your Board Adopt the Resolution.
