Honorable Commissioners:
On behalf of the City of Newport Beach, I'd like to thank you for the work the
Commission has been undertaking. We understand that the task of redrawing
electoral boundaries is complex and we appreciate you taking the time to listen
to everyone's suggestions.
The City of Newport Beach kindly urges the Commission to place all Orange
County coastal cities into a single Congressional District. Those cities would
include Dana Point, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, San
Clemente, and Seal Beach.
Currently, the cities are spread amongst two Counties and two Congressional
Districts, and we are certain that, due to the common interests, concerns, and
challenges these coastal cities share, the most prudent solution would be to
consolidate the cities into one Congressional District.
The City of Newport Beach respectfully requests your support in consolidating
all the Orange County coastal cities into one Congressional District.
