The City of Santa Fe is extending the application deadline for applying to participate in Independent Citizens’ Redistricting Commission (ICRC) to Monday, February 14, 2022.

Specifically, the City did not receive at least three applications for District 3, District 4, statistician, or geographer or cartographer.

For five of the seven positions, interested individuals must be both residents and registered voters of the city.

Two positions, those reserved for a statistician and geographer or cartographer, allow for a Santa Fe County resident to be appointed, but only if a City resident does not apply. Individuals with knowledge in areas such as demographics, statistics, the history, geography, governmental structure, and community dynamics of the City of Santa Fe are encouraged to apply!

The Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission was established by legislation adopted in 2014 and is governed by Section 6-18 of the City Code. The Ordinance requires the Commission to review and revise the City of Santa Fe district boundaries at least every 10 years.

Interested residents may apply for a seat on the ICRC by sending an email to Kristine Mihelcic, Community Engagement Department Director and City Clerk, kmmihelcic@santafenm.gov, with the attached application (click to access).

Application deadline has been extended to Monday, February 14, 2022.

For questions about the application, please call (505) 955-6521.
