On Thursday, February 20th, Frederick's City Council unanimously approved new legislative districts to take into effect in this election cycle. Currently, there are five Council Members, but this new charter calls for one Council Member per legislative district and two at large members.
Filing for Council and mayoral candidates will open February 24th and close July 1st.
The primary election for City Council and mayor is scheduled for September 9th and the general election for November 4th.
Take a look at the updated district map! It utilizes the 2020 U.S. Census data and outlines four districts, each with approximately 15,000 individuals. Additionally, there's one district—District 5—that is slightly larger, with just a bit over 16,000 residents.
