CITY OF OWASSO COUNCIL WARDS OCTOBER 2002 CITY OF OWASSO, OKLAHOMA PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT ENGINEERNG OMMON CITY OF OWASSO COUNCIL WARDS OCTOBER 2002 CITY OF OWASSO, OKLAHOMA PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT ENGINEERNG OMMON MEMORANDUM TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL CITY OF OWASSO FROM: RODNEY J. RAY CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: PROPOSED CHANGE IN WARD BOUNDARIES, ORDINANCE #725 DATE: November 15, 2002 BACKGROUND: State Statutes (11 O.S. Article XX, Section 20 -101 requires that: "As soon as practical following each federal census, the municipal governing body shall review the wards and ward boundaries of the municipality. The governing body shall change the boundaries....if necessary....so that the wards are formed of compact and contiguous territory and are substantially equal in population. Detailed data from the 2000 Federal Census became available to local governments in the early part of 2002. Since that time the staff has reviewed the existing ward boundaries in relation to the population numbers provided by the census. Based on that review, a determination was made that the ward boundaries should be changed to reflect the changing population density and better distribute the city's population throughout the five wards. That effort has resulted in the attached map showing the proposed wards. This proposal represents a significant amount of analysis on the part of the staff and three separate reviews by the City Council. NOTICE: As required by law, the proposed change in ward boundaries was included in a public notice in The Owasso Reporter on October 17, 2002. During the thirty -day notice period, only one comment/question was received. PROPOSED WARD BOUNDARIES NOVEMBER 15, 2002 PAGE 2 POPULATION: Based on a census tract count that was updated as of 2002, the wards as proposed contain the following populations: Ward I - 2,063 Ward II - 3,603 Ward III - 4,011 Ward IV - 3,800 Ward V - 5,000 It should be noted that growing cities have traditionally attempted to avoid having to regularly change ward boundaries by recognizing that specific growth areas will gain population over the coming ten -year period. As a result, those areas are generally assigned smaller population numbers to allow for growth. Such is the case in this proposal. Ware One, as proposed contains fewer people than the other wards, but also has the greatest potential for growth. Additionally, Ward Two is also a growth areas It should also be noted that a strong effort has been made, when possible, to keep neighborhoods within a single ward. This effort should make it significantly easier for a citizen to quickly recognize in which ward they reside. RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommends City Council adoption of Ordinance #725.
