Beginning with the Presidential General Election in November 2016, Members of the City Council were elected in the electoral districts established by Yucaipa Municipal Code Section 1.08. A significant public process was undertaken in 2016 to provide information to the community and to provide opportunities for public input regarding district boundaries. Based on the 2010 Census data, the City’s consultant developed maps for review/comment/consideration at public meetings. The City Council selected a preferred map and the districts were set by Ordinance No. 348, which was passed and adopted at a regular meeting of the Yucaipa City Council on June 27, 2016.

Every ten years, local governments use new census data to redraw their district lines to reflect how local populations have changed. Assembly Bill 849 (2019) and Assembly Bill 1276 (2020) require cities and counties to involve communities in the redistricting process by holding public hearings and/or workshops and making public outreach, including to non-English speaking communities.
