For a second time in as many weeks, City Hall’s second floor council chambers hosted a public forum for Statesboro residents to view and assess the city’s plans for reforming its five voting districts. A small contingent of about ten people met Thursday with city staff and councilmen to evaluate maps outlining proposed redistricting by Statesboro’s Department of Community Development. The meeting offered a final opportunity for citizens to provide feedback regarding the department’s initial proposal.“We took the comments received last week, looked at them, and will take the comments we receive tonight to plan our next steps moving forward,” said Mandi Cody, Director of Community Development.
