UPDATE:  On March 8, 2022, the City Council identified the Canary Amended Map for adoption.  The map submission deadline has passed. The tools remain on the website for reference only.

There are different tools for different purposes, and different tools for different levels of technical skill and interest.

A variety of map-drawing tools will be available:

1. Paper-only maps for those without internet access or who prefer paper.

Tools needed:

    • Public Participation Kit – Paper Map w/ Population Count (English or Spanish or Korean)
    • Alternatively, submit any form of hand-drawn map that identifies street names.

2. Paper maps with a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to calculate population totals

Tools needed:

3. DistrictR a simple online map drawing tool to easily draw neighborhoods or communities of interest.

Tools needed:

Interactive Review Map

This tool is used to review, analyze, and compare maps, not to create them. Zoom in and out on map boundaries, view population counts/ID#s, and view draft maps (once the draft maps are released). Similar to Google Maps in ease of use.

Submit maps to redistrictBP@buenapark.com. After you submit your map, the demographic consultants will generate the population and other demographic details for your proposed map. Maps can be viewed on the Draft Maps page or on the Interactive Review Map.

It is helpful if you submit written comments with your map describing how your map was drawn to meet the required criteria. An example of this would be describing the specific neighborhoods or communities of interest that are kept within a single district.
