2. The residences presently in the Town, as counted in the census
were totaled as 615 for an average of ]~3 for each of the five (5) wards as
proposed by the committee. Each home, apartment, house trailer and combination
business-residence was counted as a residence. Business houses, Churches and-
vacant lots were omitted from the count.
3. The Committee agreed that the most equitable basis was to re-
apportion the Town considering each residence as one potential voter location
and not consider whether the persons in each residence were registered voters.
The right to vote is one's own free choice and should not be considered in
the matter of reapportionment for equal representation.
~+. The Committee then discussed the consideration to be given each
area of potential growth at present and in the future. The Committee agreed to
consider the present planned development areas where possible but that a
recommendation be made to the Town Board to set up a plan to re-study the
possible needs for reapportionment each-three (3) or four (4) years. Arty
unexpected growth of the town would then be recognized and equal representation
rights analyzed to reapportion again if necessary.
5. The final study of the Committee was dividing the Town of Owasso
into five (5) wards, each containing 123 homes, more or less, maintaining a
reasonable grouping of homes within each ward.
Two maps are attached for your information. Exhibit °tA" denotes the
present voting wards in the Town of Owasso. Exhibit '$" reflects the Committee's
recommendation as to WARDS and BOUNDARIES in the Town of Owasso.
As Chairman of the Committee, I wish to thank each of you for your
cooperation.

Reapportionment Committee
