~ The City of Colorado Springs has officially released the final map for its six council districts, which will be in effect for the next four years. Clerk Sarah Johnson announced the boundaries today, following months of research and community engagement.

The District Process Advisory Committee (DPAC), consisting of nine board members, played a crucial role in this process by providing advisory support to educate and involve the public, assist the City Clerk, and advise City Council. After carefully considering public feedback on the preliminary map, Johnson determined that no changes were necessary. As a result, the final map remains unchanged from the preliminary version released in October.

In a statement, Johnson expressed her satisfaction with the final map and its reflection of fair and equitable representation for all citizens of Colorado Springs. She also thanked the DPAC for their dedication throughout this process and encouraged everyone to familiarize themselves with the changes, particularly those who plan to run for a City Council seat in the upcoming April municipal election.

The next General Municipal Election for the six City Council district seats will take place on April 1, 2025. It is important to note that each council member must reside within their respective district boundaries and maintain a residence within that district.

According to City Code, redistricting must occur every four years in even-numbered years prior to odd-year elections. The districts must also meet certain criteria such as being substantially equal in population, contiguous, and compliant with City Charter, City Code, and the Voting Rights Act. The city clerk is responsible for setting the redistricting map and it does not require approval from the Mayor or City Council.

The final council district map can be viewed on Colorado Springs' official website at ColoradoSprings.gov/city-clerk/page/city-council-districts. Citizens are encouraged to review it and become familiar with their new district boundaries.
