Our Changing Ward

The Census is taken every ten years to get an updated count of area residents. This data is used for redistricting, a process where the ward boundaries are redrawn to reflect the population demonstrated in the Census. These new boundaries are set to take effect in May of 2023 when Aldermen take office after the February election.  Below you can see how these changes will affect the 32nd Ward.
