AFTER TRANSITIONING FROM AT-LARGE TO BY-DISTRICT
ELECTIONS
STRATEGIC
GOAL: Open, Engaged & Responsive Government
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council receive a report on the districting process,
conduct a public hearing to receive public input regarding adoption of a district map and
the sequence of district elections. Following input received during the public hearing, it
is further recommended that the City Council take the following actions in the following
sequence:
A. Approve for second reading by title only, waive full reading, and adopt Ordinance
No. 01 (2022).
B. Adopt Resolution No. 2022-22 approving a District Map and the sequence of
elections.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
6.1
Packet Pg. 175
Significant staff time has been required to transition to district-based elections and to
administer the process including the need for public hearings and demographer contract
services. Future redistricting will require similar services when census data is updated
every ten years. Additionally, the City will be required to reimburse the Southwest Voter
Registration Education Project for its documented costs, up to $30,000. However, such
expenses would likely be significantly lower than the costs of litigating the threatened
lawsuit if district-based elections are not approved.
BACKGROUND:
Since incorporation in 1989, registered voters in Diamond Bar have elected City Council
members using an “at-large” system in which all members are elected by all registered
voters to provide city-wide representation. In 2001, the state legislature approved the
California Voting Rights Act (CVRA), modifying burden of proof requirements contained
in the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965 to make it easier for plaintiffs to challenge at-
large voting systems. The CVRA prohibits an agency from using at-large elections if it
impairs the ability of a protected class, as defined, to elect candidates of its choice or
otherwise influence the outcome of an election. The CVRA includes the imposition of
district-based elections by a court as a remedy to violations of the CVRA, and requires
the government agency to pay all legal and court fees should the plaintiff prevail in
court.
Demand to Convert to District Elections
In a letter received January 13, 2022, Mr. Kevin Shenkman, counsel representing the
Southwest Voter Registration Education Project (SVREP), alleges that the City’s at-
large elections system violates the CVRA because it results in racially polarized voting
that dilutes the impact of Latino voters. The letter demands that Diamond Bar voluntarily
change its at-large system for electing City Council members to a district-based system
to avoid litigation.
Mr. Shenkman has sent similar demand letters to cities, school districts and special
districts across the state and has successfully sued governmental agencies under
similar allegations. The majority of agencies receiving the letter have avoided litigation
by voluntarily transitioning from at-large to district-based elections citing the cost of legal
defense and potential liability for significant attorney’s fees and settlement costs if the
City’s legal defense is unsuccessful.
ANALYSIS:
The CVRA Imposes Significant Costs of Litigating
The CVRA, codified as Elections Code sections 14025 et seq., became law on January
1, 2003. The declared purpose of the CVRA is to prevent the disenfranchisement of
protected classes, which are broadly defined to include members of a race, color, or
language minority group. Any voter who resides in a city and is a member of a protected
class may file a lawsuit for a violation of the CVRA. To succeed, the plaintiff must only
show that, as a result of an at-large election, “racially polarized voting” has occurred.
Racially polarized voting” means there is a difference between the choice of candidates
6.1
Packet Pg. 176
preferred by voters in a protected class and candidates preferred by voters in the
remainder of the voting population. If the plaintiff prevails in litigation, the CVRA allows
for the recovery of significant attorneys’ fees and expert witness fees. On the other
hand, even if the city that is sued prevails in the lawsuit, it cannot recover either
attorneys’ fees or costs.
In addition, the CVRA provides that if a court finds that a violation of the CVRA has
occurred, the court shall implement appropriate remedies, including the imposition of
district-based elections, that are tailored to remedy the violation. The remedy can
include the imposition of district maps for the City.
The CVRA “Safe Harbor”
On September 28, 2016, the Governor signed into law AB 350, which enacted Elections
Code section 10010. That legislation established a “safe harbor” from CVRA litigation
for cities. Once a city receives a demand letter, it has a period of protection from
litigation to assess its situation, and then to proceed with the transition to district-based
elections.
In Diamond Bar’s case, the initial CVRA safe harbor period of protection ran until
February 27, 2022. But because the City Council adopted Resolution 2022-10 stating
its intention to transition to district-based elections on February 17, 2022, then a CVRA
lawsuit could not be filed for an additional 90-day period, or until May 18, 2022. And
under AB 350, the City’s liability would be capped at $30,000 if it utilizes the safe harbor
provisions and subsequently adopts an ordinance establishing district-based elections
by May 18, 2022.
Setting District Boundaries
Prior to adopting or implementing an ordinance establishing district-based elections, the
City Council is required to establish district boundaries and the sequencing of district
elections. California Elections Code section 10010 sets forth the City Council public
hearing process for establishing district boundaries and the sequencing of district
elections. This process requires a series of noticed public hearings during which the
public has a right to provide input on proposed district boundaries. Specifically, the City
must hold at least two “clean slate” hearings at which the public can provide input on
district boundaries before any maps are prepared. Thereafter, the City must hold at
least two more public hearings to consider draft maps. Finally, the City must hold a
public hearing at which the map is adopted and the sequencing of district elections is
established. The map and sequencing would be approved by City ordinance or
resolution.
The City held the first two public hearings on March 1, 2022 and March 15, 2022.
Additionally, online information meetings were held on March 9, 2022, and March 23,
2022. At these public hearings and information meetings, staff and the City’s
consultants informed the public about the districting process and heard from the
community on what factors should be taken into consideration while creating district
boundaries. The public was requested to provide input regarding communities of
interest and other local factors that should be considered while drafting district maps.
6.1
Packet Pg. 177
A “community of interest” is a “contiguous population that shares common social and
economic interests that should be included within a single district for purposes of its
effective and fair representation.” These may include a neighborhood or group that
would benefit from being in the same district because of shared interests, views,
cultures, histories, languages, and values and whose boundaries can be identified on a
map. Possible community features include, but are not limited to:
Shared interests in schools, housing, community safety, transit, health
conditions, land use, environmental conditions, and/or other issues.
Common social and civic networks, including churches, mosques, temples,
home-owner associations, and community centers, and shared use of community
spaces, like parks and shopping centers.
Racial and ethnic compositions, cultural identities, and households that
predominantly speak a language other than English.
Similar socio-economic status, including but not limited to income, home
ownership, and education levels.
Shared political boundary lines from other jurisdictions, such as school districts,
community college districts, and water districts.
In creating the district boundaries, the City must ensure compliance with the following
federal and state mandated criteria:
Federal Laws:
1. Each council district shall contain a nearly equal population (based on
total population of residents as determined by the most recent Federal
decennial Census and adjusted by the State to reassign incarcerated
persons to the last known place of residence); and
2. Each council district shall be drawn in a manner that complies with the
Federal Voting Rights Act. No council district shall be drawn with race as
the predominate factor in violation of the principles established by the
United States Supreme Court in Shaw v. Reno, 509 U.S. 630 (1993), and
its progeny.
California Criteria for Cities (to the extent practicable and in the following order of
priority):
1. Geographically contiguous (areas that meet only at the points of adjoining
corners are not contiguous. Areas that are separated by water and not
connected by a bridge, tunnel, or ferry service are not contiguous).
2. Undivided neighborhoods and "communities of interest" (Socio-economic
geographic areas that should be kept together for purposes of its effective
and fair representation).
3. Easily identifiable boundaries.
6.1
Packet Pg. 178
4. Compact (do not bypass one group of people to get to a more distant
group of people).
5. Prohibited: “Shall not favor or discriminate against a political party.”
Other Traditional Districting Principles:
1. Respect voters' choices / continuity in office.
2. Future population growth.
Preliminary City Council Votes
After receiving community input during the second public hearing held March 15, 2022,
the City Council agreed to proceed with five council districts. At the third public hearing
on April 5, 2022, after receiving community input, the City Council requested additional
time to review the maps that have been submitted. As of April 5, 2022, the City had
received four communities of interest maps and twenty-six public maps, which in
addition to the three maps prepared by the City’s consultant, totaled thirty-three maps.
The City Council gave further direction to bring back an ordinance to transition to by-
district elections with a stipulation that the District Map and sequence of elections be
established by resolution of the City Council.
Community Engagement
To encourage public participation, this meeting has been publicly noticed and public
education and engagement materials have been posted on the City website and social
media channels. A banner in the City’s main webpage allows visitors to link to the City’s
Districting webpage:
https://www.diamondbarca.gov/1070/City-Council-Districting
Residents can review information about the districting process and can be informed
about future workshops and public hearings.
The City has also hosted two virtual public workshops (March 9 and 23) and two in -
person public workshops (April 9 and 16) to solicit further public testimony.
Draft Maps
Draft maps A through C, which were prepared by the City’s consultant, were posted on
the city’s Districting webpage since March 29, 2022, along with a demographic profile of
each map and determination of whether or not a proposed map results in balanced
populations among the districts. These draft maps take into account public input
received in public hearings and community meetings. At the April 5, 2022 meeting, the
City Council chose not to take action on draft maps A through C, directing staff to bring
back all maps for further discussion at a future meeting.
6.1
Packet Pg. 179
In preparation for the April 19, 2022 City Council meeting, each Council Member was
asked to review draft maps A through C and all publicly-submitted maps received as of
April 13, 2022 and provide their individual preferences for further deliberation during the
public hearing. Public maps 123322 and 124279 were identified by individual Council
Members as preferred maps for further discussion.
At the time of the April 19, 2022, public hearing, over forty maps had been received.
Testimony from members of the public voiced support for Public Map 124279.
Following Council discussion after the public hearing at the April 19, 2022 meeting, the
City Council directed staff to prepare Public Map 124279 for consideration and
adoption by resolution at the May 3, 2022 meeting. The map selected by the City
Council was posted on the city’s Districting webpage on April 20, 2022, along with a
demographic profile.
District Election Sequencing
In addition to selecting a map to transition to district elections, the resolution
establishing the new district map must identify the election sequencing of each district.
At the April 19, 2022 meeting, the City Council directed staff to prepare a resolution
identifying Districts 1, 3, and 4 of Public Map 124279 for election in 2022 and Districts 2
and 5 for election in 2024. This sequence is compliant pursuant to Elections Code
10010(a)(2), and Government Code sections 34906 and 34873 (the term of office of any
council member elected shall not be affected by the ordinance transitioning to districts).
Next Steps
The dates for the remaining public hearings are as follows:
Public Hearing # 5: Tuesday, May 3: 6:30 p.m.
Public Hearing #5 will be held in-person/open to the public, at the Windmill Community
Room, and will continue to be accessible virtually via GotoWebinar.
