Redistricting 2022

The City of San Juan Capistrano transitioned to district elections with the November 2016 election.  Each city with district-based elections is required to update (“redistrict”) the district boundaries every ten years, following the receipt of decennial census data. Local governments use the new Census data to redraw their district lines to reflect how local populations have changed.

The City of San Juan Capistrano begin its analysis of the 2020 Census Data and redistricting process in early 2022, holding multiple hearings and workshops as well as conducting extensive outreach, including to non-English-speaking communities. On March 15, 2022, the City of San Juan Capistrano City Council adopted Ordinance 1096 (PDF), implementing a new City Council district map (PDF).  While the redistricting process is complete, this web page remains live to serve as an archive of the election changes, including the schedule, draft maps and resources.
