Archived Council District Border

As required by Dallas City Charter, redistricting of elected official districts is required every ten years based on updated Census information. This feature layer represents the archived city council district boundaries as approved by the Dallas City Council on October 5, 2011. This feature class is useful for representing Council District borders as patterned lines in web map applications. This feature class is not authoritative; it is derived from the Enterprise GIS Council District polygon feature class. Boundaries are based upon 2010 Census Block geography and may not conform with other data. Where street boundaries serve as district borders, the entire right of way is assigned to the northern or eastern boundary. Utilizing this file with non-census shapefiles may result in discrepancies between boundaries. To identify appropriate boundaries, please use in conjunction with the 2010 Census edges and block files. Note: External boundaries conflated to match base City Limits GIS data.
