Detroit City Council is undertaking the redistricting of council districts, a process guided by a memo from the Law Department issued in May 2022. This redistricting, mandated to align with the latest Census results as per Detroit’s City Charter, must be completed by January 2024. The core principles dictating this process are compactness, connectivity, and relative equality in size of the districts, while also respecting political subdivisions such as voting precincts.
