Communities of

Interest & Compactness:

Map Option (A): Minimize Changes to Election Cycle

  • This criteria requires the Committee to preserve Communities of Interest and whole political subdivisions (e.g., Cities and Towns), as much as reasonably possible, and ensure that districts are as compact as is reasonably possible. Population of Districts 1, 2, and 4 are lower to allow for future growth. Communities of Interest are the I-25 corridor, Fort Carson, and El Paso County Eastern plains. The Districts are sufficiently compact.
    • Proposed Map Option (A) keeps most cities and towns whole within one District.
      • Calhan – District 2 (No Change)
      • Cascade – District 3 (No Change)
      • Colorado Springs – District 1, District 2, District 3, District 4, and District 5 (No Change)
      • Elbert – District 2 (No Change)
      • Fountain – District 4 (No Change)
      • Green Mountain Falls – District 3 (No Change)
      • Manitou Springs – District 3 (No Change)
      • Monument – District 1, and District 3 (No Change)
      • Palmer Lake – District 3 (No Change)

Population of Districts 2, and 4 are lower to allow for future growth. Communities of Interest are the I-25 corridor, Fort Carson, and El Paso County Eastern plains. The Districts are sufficiently compact.

  • This criteria requires the Committee to preserve Communities of Interest and whole political subdivisions (e.g., Cities and Towns), as much as reasonably possible, and ensure that districts are as compact as is reasonably possible. Population of Districts 1, 2, and 4 are lower to allow for future growth. Communities of Interest are the I-25 corridor, Fort Carson, and El Paso County Eastern plains. The Districts are sufficiently compact.
    • Proposed Map Option (A) keeps most cities and towns whole within one District.
