On December 16, Office of Planning released this map showing all proposed Ward 6 Advisory Neighborhood Commissions and Single Member Districts. Of note from the previous map produced for the DC Council's Subcommittee on Redistricting is that Advisory Neighborhood Commission 6C is shown with six Single Member Districts rather than seven. What were shown as 6C06 and 6C07 have been combined into a single SMD. This map is still under consideration by the DC Council.

This blog is to promote the discussion and share ideas about the Ward Six redistricting process. This blog is maintained by Joe Fengler, W6TF Chair. To propose a "post" or poll - send request to ward6rd@gmail.com. While anonymity is used on blogs, I would encourage folks to use their real names. This is a request and not a requirement. The only firm rules are to treat each other respect and avoid personal attacks. For the meeting schedule and information, see below buttons.

Proposed SMDs with Largest Deviations
According to the Office of Planning, these are the top ten proposed Single Member Districts across the city with the largest deviations from the population target of 2,000 persons each.
The law gives preference to maintaining SMD populations plus or minus 5% (between 1,900 and 2,100 persons), but it also gives exemptions from this numerical range for a variety of reasons, such as to avoid splitting Census Blocks or to maintain neighborhood cohesiveness.
