The major challenge for staff, in regards to population data, centered around the practice of switching the basis data from 2010 Bureau of Economic and Business Research(BEBR)mid range to the finite numbers identified within the 2010 U.S. Census. Bureau of Economic and Business Research(BEBR)population data usually tends to run on the high side, so switching to 2010 Census data proved to be challenging. Staff began calculating the general and voting age populations for each current district using the 2010 census data and then using those numbers to calculate a deviation from the overall "target" population for each district. This requirement generally means that commission districts must be "as nearly of equal population as is practicable" under the Equal Protection Clause. In turn, this will give each person equal opportunity to run for a commission seat and, correspondingly, give each commissioner relatively the same number of voters to represent from a district perspective. In essence, it's imperative that, when creating districts, the total population deviation between the most heavily populated district and the least populated district (Maximum Deviation) is no more than ten (10%) percent.. With this in mind, if the maximum deviation does not exceed 10%, a city is entitled to a presumption that the districting plan was the result of an"honest and good faith effort to construct districts as nearly of equal population as is practicable". In the attempt to further refine the population numbers to account for development activity since the 2010 Census, staff counted current certificate of occupancy data for recent projects such as Winter Springs Village, Amberly, and The Greens at Tuskawilla. The 2010 Census data identified District Four (4) as the one having the highest total residential unit count and total population. In addition, District Five(5)was identified as the district having the lowest total residential unit count and total population. The 2013 districting data identified challenges for achieving the total population deviation of no more than 10% between the most heavily populated district and the least populated district (Maximum Deviation). 2013 District Commission Data Source 2010 Census 2010 U.S. Census Data 2010 Census Population= 33,282 City of Winter Springs Census Tracts (7) 1. 214.01 2. 214.03 3. 214.04 4. 213.06 5. 213.07 6. 221.01 7. 213.13 Total Population within the 7 census tracts = 49,464 Existing 2010 Census Population= 33,282 September 11,2013 Regular Hearing Agenda Item 603 Page 6 of 12 2010 Census Tract Total Population Outside City= 16,182 Table 2 - 2010 Census Population Infromation Census Tract 2010 Census 2010 Voting Age Population Population 214.01 7,136 5,444 214.03 7,980 5,980 214.04 6,965 5,508 213.06 7,196 5,769 213.07 7,193 5,508 221.01 6,841 5,342 213.13 6,153 4,724 Total Population 49,464 38,275 Total 2010 Census 16,182 12,490 Tract Population (49,464 - 33,282) (38,275 - 25,785) outside City Target Population Per 6,656 5,157 District Highest Population Per 6,989 5,415 District Lowest Population Per 6,323 4,899 District Target Population= 6,656 per district (33,282 population divided by 5 districts) Highest Population Per District= 6,989 (6,656 x 1.05) Lowest Population Per District= 6,323 (6,656 x .95) 2010 Census - Existing Residential Units = 14,052 In conclusion, the 2010 U.S. Census population data helped identify four (4) specific changes to the existing 2010 District Boundary Map that achieves the allowable maximum deviation of no more than 10%.
