A public hearing will be held Thursday, July 7 at Highline Community College in Des Moines to discuss and gather input on redistricting of King Council Council districts.

The meeting will be held in Building 7 at the college main campus, 2400 S. 240th St., from 6:30- 8:30 p.m.
The King County Districting Committee on Monday, June 20 released four alternative plans for redrawing County Council districts. The plans are posted on the Committee website at www.kingcounty.gov/districting.

Each draft plan uses a different approach in order to meet the redistricting requirements in state law and the County Charter. Before beginning work, the Committee held public hearings in Seattle, Kirkland, and Kent to gather community input.

"The Districting Committee is working to ensure that each County resident is fairly represented in King County government," said Committee Chair Terrence Carroll. "These four plans are alternate approaches to drawing equally populated districts that meet legal requirements and take into consideration the public input we received. The Committee looks forward to a robust community discussion on which alternatives will provide the best representation to the people of King County."
