The agenda, PowerPoint, submitted public comments, and other supporting materials are available at the Los Angeles County Citizens Redistricting Commission website: https://redistricting.lacounty.gov/virtual-meetings/ During Summer 2021, the Citizens Redistricting Commission (CRC) will conduct ten (10) public hearings for input from communities of interest. At these hearings, the CRC will describe their process and ask for community input on what to consider in the redistricting effort.
