The Time-Line represents the schedule for adoption of a Supervisorial District Boundary Ordinance. It may be revised by the Boundary Review Committee or the Board of Supervisors in order to meet the requirements of Election Code Section 21506 that mandates implementing new boundaries by September 28, 2001.

Adoption of the Ordinance by July 10, 2001 allows for the requisite 30-day period for the Plan to become effective. During this time, the public has the right to challenge the Plan by referendum.

Pursuant to the 1991 Garza Stipulation, the United States Attorney General must preclear the Plan approved by the Board of Supervisors prior to implementation.

Note: The Boundary Review Committee may adjust the following timetable as needed.

*Section 21501 of the California State Election Code states that "the boundaries of the supervisorial districts shall be adjusted by the board before the first day of November of the year following the year in which each decennial federal census is taken. If the board fails to adjust the boundaries before the first day of November following the year in which the federal census is taken, a supervisorial redistricting commission shall do so before the 31st day of December of the same year. The adjustment of the district boundaries shall be immediately effective the same as if the act of the supervisorial redistricting commission were an ordinance of the board, subject, however, to the same provisions of referendum as apply to ordinances of the board."

Further, Section 21502 of the State Election Code states that "the supervisorial redistricting commission shall be composed of the district attorney, who shall be chairman, the county assessor, and, in the case of Los Angeles County, "the sheriff."
