<br /> <br />KOSSOW: Mr. Yoshina. <br /> <br />YOSHINA: Yeah, I guess the essential question is, what data do we use to draw these <br />maps? I think we’re rather constrained to use the data provided by the U.S. Census. All of <br />these requests that are coming in now, are nice to have but, I’m just wondering if we are <br />constrained under law to revise that data. I’m not certain if that is a clear statement or not. <br />Seems like if we are trying to include all of these different populations, is that in the <br />existing data? And when is that data locked in? <br /> <br />KOSSOW: Mr. Lopez. <br /> <br />LOPEZ: Yes, I’ll support that comment. I’ll tell you where I’m at right now. Using the <br />ESRI tool, I spent a lot of time of course like anybody else, trying to align my <br />percentages and district boundaries and such. Then I get on these minutes with this <br />agenda. Then I get the existing council districts that just came in on the communication <br />that’s in this package. Those are different from what’s in ESRI. Then we’re talking about <br />the incarcerated. So the census numbers are a continually moving target. I don’t know, <br />personally, how to do my job. I don’t know what numbers to use. I can’t use the ESRI <br />review tool that tells you how you’re doing against the percentage distributions because <br />those numbers are what’s on paper. I’m hope I’m being clear because I’m really in a <br />quandary as to how I should be doing my job, and the work that I’ve already done. Seems <br />like it’s fruitless at this point. What’s already been done, excuse me. Thank you. <br /> <br />YOSHINA: Mr. Lopez, this is Dwayne. <br /> <br />KOSSOW: Mr. Yoshina. <br /> <br />YOSHINA: I think I will accept the responsibility for the requests for the 2011 maps with <br />the 2020 population numbers. I just wanted to see what that would look like. I apologize <br />if that caused any confusion but that was just for reference purposes. <br /> <br />KOSSOW: Mr. Lopez. <br /> <br />LOPEZ: Thank you for that. I wasn’t aware of that. It was not a fault or anything. I didn’t <br />realize it was for reference purposes only. From your response, I feel secure in using the <br />ESRI numbers in doing the job that I need to do. Is that correct, from anybody? <br /> <br />YOSHINA: That’s a 10-4 from me. <br /> <br />BATH: Ditto on that. <br /> <br />KOSSOW: Ms. Lui. <br /> <br />LUI: On the incarcerated, I wonder if could just get the number of people that were <br />incarcerated in the different sites because when we finish, we’re not going to have an <br />exact, same number of people in each district. We know that there will be a little bit of <br /> 11 <br /> <br />
