BOE calls public hearings on redistricting

"font-size: 12pt">BAY MINETTE,

Ala. — The Baldwin County Board of Education will hold six

informational meetings regarding voter redistricting.

"font-size: 12pt">The voting districts to be determined are the

districts from which members of the Baldwin County Board of

Education are elected. This effort does not affect where students

attend school.

"font-size: 12pt">Every 10 years, after each census, school

districts are required by Federal law to review and if necessary,

redraw voting district boundaries to reflect current population

trends.

"font-size: 12pt">You can see the proposed modifications and make

comment at

you want to see the maps and provide input in person, six

opportunities have been scheduled. The meetings are not feeder

pattern or district specific, meaning anyone from any area can

attend any meeting.

Tuesday, Aug. 9: Bay Minette Intermediate School Library, noon;

Rockwell Elementary School Library, 5 p.m.; and Daphne Elementary
