Every 10 years after the U.S. Census population count, Douglas County is constitutionally required to adjust boundaries for the County Commissioner districts to account for the new population numbers. The resulting commission district boundaries must be balanced in population in accordance with local, state, and federal rules governing the redistricting process.
Douglas County is seeking public input on potential redistricting maps for both County Commissioner Districts and School District Board Trustee Districts. The maps, timelines, and feedback forms are different from each other.
