MEMORANDUM
To: Palm Springs City Council
Aft: Will Kleindlenst, Mayor
From: Matt Weyuker, Mayor, Desert Hot Springs
Re: Riverside County Board of Supervisors' Redistricting
During the most recent meeting of the Desert Hot Springs City Council, Tuesday,
July 3rd, the issue of the proposed redistricting of the five supervisorial districts
was brought forth. Members of the City Council and those citizens in attendance
expressed concern with the current proposal under consideration.
At issue was the placement of Desert Hot Springs into the fifth district, which in
essence removes our city from the Coachella Valley representation of our fourth
district Supervisor Roy Wilson. It also potentially weakens CVAG and reduces
Desert Hot Springs to a near non-entity in an out-of-the-Valley district which will
be dominated by cities and the City of Moreno Valley, which alone
comprises nearly one-half the new proposed fifth district,
Our city will be sending a contingent to this Tuesday's Board of Supervisor's
meeting, at which time we will be expressing our concerns and displeasure with
the proposed redistricting that so adversely affects Desert Hot Springs and its
future in the Coachella Valley.
