Honorable Pat Tinley
Kerr County Judge
700 Main
Kerrville, TX 78028
RE: Redistricting of Commissioner Precincts and the upcoming decennial census.
Dear Judge Tinley,
In April of this year the Decennial Census will be taken starting the 2010 redistricting
process. Census estimates and voter registration changes indicate that Kerr County will grow by
approximately 6% (see enclosures); this means that you will have to redistrict your commissioner
precincts.
Our firm did the redistricting for over 100 jurisdictions during the last redistricting cycle.
Enclosed is a partial list of past clients. Our experience is that the earlier you start the
redistricting process the easier it is to prepare for the expected changes. Also, the more aware
the community is of the upcoming census and redistricting process, the less likely it is that the
undercount will result in unnecessary loss of state and federal funds.
The purpose of this letter is to request a time when I can come by and make a
presentation to the commissioners' court on the redistricting process.
My office will be following up on this issue in case you would like for us to brief the
commissioners on this matter.
