Schedule For The Second Round Of Redistricting Hearings Announced

In addition to its business meetings, the Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission (AIRC) holds two series of public hearings all over the state.

During the first round of hearings, they solicited public input on what the AIRC should consider when drawing up maps.

Now, they've completed a draft map of Congressional districts and will have a draft map for legislative districts by the end of the weekend.

During the second round of public hearings, they'll accept feedback on those draft maps, and suggestions for changes to the maps.  Most of the suggestions won't be turned into changes to the maps (if only because many will be contradictory), but some will.

The schedule of hearings (start time 6 p.m. unless otherwise noted),  All are subject to change, so check 48 hours beforehand before making travel plans:
