 Indian River County Decennial Redistricting
Overview
The 2010 decennial census is now complete. That triggers a responsibility of the Board of County Commissioners to review the commissioner districts in light of the census data, and to make changes required by law. Specifically, (1) article VIII, section (1)(e) of the Florida Constitution provides that “after each decennial census the board of county commissioners shall divide the county into districts of contiguous territory as nearly equal in population as practicable,” and (2) section 124.01, Florida Statutes provides that “there shall be five county commissioners’ districts in each county, which shall be numbered one to five, inclusive, and shall be as nearly equal in proportion to population as possible.” Section 124.01 goes on to say that changes in county commissioner districts “shall be made only in odd-numbered years” - meaning that the Board must complete the redistricting process before the end of 2011.
