CITY HALL 215 Church Avenue P.O. Box 1130 Oshkosh, WI 54903-1130 JESSI L. BALCOM City Clerk ANGELA J. JOECKEL Deputy City Clerk MISSY L. BOOTHE Election Specialist THERESA C. BOETTCHER Election Data Clerk TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council FROM: Jessi L. Balcom, City Clerk DATE: May 23, 2022 RE: Approve Amendment of City Ward Maps to Comply with Legislative District Boundaries BACKGROUND State statutes require cities such as the City of Oshkosh to adopt a municipal voting ward plan, establishing voting districts and select a polling site for each district. Upon completion of a federal census, municipal wards, county supervisory districts and districts for election of state and federal offices are reviewed and may be adjusted to maintain proportionality of votes between the various legislative and congressional districts to assure equal representation in the legislative branches of government. ANALYSYS The adjustments necessary to coincide with the Wisconsin Supreme Court ordered maps were adopted by the City Council through Resolution 22-187 on May 10, 2022. Winnebago County is working to enter this information into the State’s system prior to the May 25, 2022 deadline and has notified the City of an error in the legal description for Wards 4 and 4A. The attached Resolution will revise the attached descriptions for the Amemded City Ward Map to Comply with Legislative District Boundaries. FISCAL IMPACT The minimal cost of the mapping changes (printing new maps and updating polling location materials) will be absorbed by the Elections budget. RECOMMENDATION I recommend the City Council approve Resolution 22-224 to revise the amended City Ward Maps to Comply with Legislative District Boundaries. Respectfully Submitted, Approved Jessi L.
