The Hamilton County Commission is likely to grow by two members in 2022.
Nothing has been set in stone, but all nine current commissioners made positive comments about an 11-member option requested by commission Chairwoman Sabrena Smedley.
A map with new district boundaries was presented to the board Wednesday by the county’s GIS department at the commission’s third redistricting workshop.
The commission is eyeing Nov. 17 for a resolution on the number of districts to be made and voted on, but Hamilton County Attorney Rheubin Taylor said such a resolution could come sooner or as late as Nov. 30.
“This is the most cost-effective approach,” Smedley said of the 11-member option.
