Every ten years, the U.S. Census Bureau provides population counts, and Collier County uses this data to redraw County Commission district boundaries, a process known as “redistricting.” Collier County has five Commission districts. One County Commissioner is elected by residents within each district to represent them on the Board of County Commissioners. 

The 2020 population data required to accomplish redistricting was released from the U.S. Census Bureau on August 12, 2021. Collier County staff will subsequently analyze the population data and (a minimum of) three alternative district maps will be drawn.

A series of public workshops will be held in November for public review and comment on the alternative district maps to establish new County Commission district boundaries in accordance with Chapter 124, Florida Statutes, and the Florida Constitution. Following public review and comment, the Board of County Commissioners will consider and adopt final updated district boundaries in December 2021. All meetings are open to the public, regardless of the district in which you reside. Wearing of facemasks is encouraged but not required.
