Mr Brunsell, City Clerk, stated that Mr. Gibbs, City Attorney, today verified with the Attorney General that as part of the Court Order establishing legis- lative distrtcts, the time requirement for setting up new districts has been reduced from ninety to sixty days The state law provides that these new d�stricts have to be set up by resolution The City Clerk presented a re- solution to the Council changing precinct boundaries. The City would be complying with the sixty-day time l�mit. Because the City's precinct boundaries are also outlined in the City Code, an ord�nance has to be passed changing the City Code. The City C]erk presented an ordinance outlining the precinct boundaries within the three ward boundaries for a first reading. This ordinance, at the suggestion of the City staff, has �n each precinct only one legislative race It is felt this is more efficient and will facilitate the administration of the election and will make it easier for the voters The Council members also received maps showing the new boundaries as described in the reso7ution and the ordinance.
