Redistricting Schedule

In 2021 and 2022, the City of Visalia asked for the public's help to plan and draw new City districts.

On February 22, 2022, the Visalia City Council voted to approve Resolution 2022-11 and adopted the new map. The final map that the public helped create will define the five City of Visalia district borders, and these new districts will impact how you elect your Council Members for the next 10 years.

For record keeping purposes, and per CA Assembly Bill 849 Section 12 (g), all pages on the City website pertaining to the 2021/2022 Redistricting process will remain available.
