During the redistricting process, pursuant to the FAIR MAPS Act, the Redistricting Advisory Commission and City Council were told not to consider partisan political information in their selection of maps. During the last City Council meeting, a member of the public suggested that map 114 could benefit Greg Sebourn, Chair of the Redistricting Advisory Commission, and a former City Councilmember, should he choose to run for City Council again. While it seems unlikely that Council would adopt a map submitted so late and with no public input, that is exactly what Council did during the last redistricting process in 2015-2016—when they chose a late submission from a downtown business owner over a map that was produced through many public meetings and had fairly broad support. Incidentally, this time around the map, which had the most public support, Map 110, was not recommended by the Redistricting Advisory Commission or City Council.
