WHEREAS the County of DuPage has directed its staff to prepare maps illustrating precincts which divide the County of DuPage into precincts which contain, as near as may be practicable, 1,200 registered voters; and

 

WHEREAS, the County of DuPage has directed its staff to prepare maps illustrating precincts which divide the County of DuPage into precincts which are, as near as may be practicable, situated within a single congressional, legislative, representative, or county board district and municipal ward; and

 

WHEREAS, the County of DuPage has directed its staff to prepare maps illustrating precincts which are composed of contiguous territory in as compact form as can be taking into account the convenience of the voter; and

 

WHEREAS, the DuPage County Board has prepared election precincts as set forth in the map attached hereto as Exhibit A.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the DuPage County Board hereby adopts, by ordinance, the election precincts contained herein in Exhibit A; and
