Tomorrow in closed session, the San Luis Obispo county supervisors will discuss the lawsuit filed against the county over the new map for supervisors districts.
The redistricting is required after every Census, and the map developed by a south county citizen was approved on a 3-2 vote, but a citizens group is challenging that Patten map.
Mike Brown of the Coalition Of Labor, Agriculture and Business says the citizens group is trying to manipulate the system. He says they filed their suit in Paso Robles because of the judge.
Supervisor Lynn Compton said previously that the county may ask for a change of venue, so Judge Baltodano may not hear the case in Paso Robles.
The closed session discussion will begin tomorrow for San Luis Obispo county supervisors. How the county should defend its decision, and two of the supervisors don’t like the map, and want to see it thrown out.
Supervisor Bruce Gibson and Dawn Ortiz Legg voted against the map and want the court to reject it.
