In January, the City of Pleasant Hill received notice of an impending lawsuit should the City continue its at-large election process for city council members. Many cities, including Concord, Martinez and Antioch, have recently moved to by-district elections to comply with the requirements of the California Voting Rights Act. Because at-large elections may result in councils which don't represent the various ethnic and racial groups in a city, by-district elections are the alternative which is often required.

Our special Guest Educator, Helen Hutchison, the former President of the League of Women Voters of California, will cover how the lawsuit could affect City finances, how the districting process will affect residents of Pleasant Hill, how districts will affect future elections and how to advocate for districting best practices during City Council Meetings.
