County Redistricting Will Likely Affect La Jolla

The San Diego County Redistricting Advisory Committee released three proposed plans on Monday that would push Supervisor Pam Slater-Price out of La Jolla.

The San Diego County Redistricting Advisory Committee released three proposed plans yesterday for remapping the current five supervisorial districts. All three proposed plans push La Jolla out of District 3, which is represented by Supervisor Pam Slater-Price.

The three plans are similar. Each would extent the currently landlocked District 4 represented by Supervisor Ron Roberts towards the coast in La Jolla. District 4 current includes Clairemont, Kearny Mesa, Mission Valley, Miramar and University City.

The other districts would largely remain the same as they are now.

The committee members, who met 14 times, were tasked with redrawing district boundaries based on 2010 census data. State law requires the County Board of Supervisors to adjust the boundaries of the supervisorial districts every 10 years to balance populations in the districts.

The commitee's plans will be presented to the Board of Supervisors on June 28 with the supervisors schedule to vote in vote for final approval in August.
