Summary

Staff will publish the redistricting board's first organizational meeting after coordinating schedules; commissioners requested evening meeting times so members of the public can attend and the board will appoint the fifth member at that meeting.

Commissioners and county staff agreed the redistricting board’s first meeting will be organizational and arranged after coordinating schedules.

The Clerk said they handle publications of meetings and will coordinate with nominees: "I do the publications of the meetings" and offered to publish the first meeting notice if scheduling details can be confirmed. The state's attorney and other commissioners asked that meetings be scheduled after closing hours — "after 07:00" — so the public can attend; staff said the redistricting board has historically held later meetings to accommodate public participation.

Officials said the first meeting would cover organization and the appointment of the board’s fifth member; dates were not finalized, but staff said they could publish a meeting notice after coordinating with nominees and members and suggested earliest timing would be after the 7th of the month. The commission adjourned after directing staff to set up the organizational meeting.
