When will the districts be reviewed or redrawn?

Cities in California review and, if needed, redraw Council district boundaries every 10 years after the release of new U.S. Census data to keep districts substantially equal in population. The next full review will occur after the 2030 Census. The process follows the FAIR MAPS Act and includes multiple public hearings and outreach opportunities for residents.

How do I find out which Council Member represents my district?

Through November 2026, Sonoma’s Council Members are elected at-large, meaning they are chosen by all city voters and each Council Member represents the entire city—there is no single district representative yet.

Beginning with the November 2026 election, Districts 1, 3, and 5 will each elect a Council Member who must live in that district and will serve as that district’s representative. Districts 2 and 4 will continue to be represented at-large until their first district elections in November 2028.

View the Interactive District Map to look up your district number; after the 2026 election results are certified, this page will list the Council Member for each district.

Will my polling place or ballot change?

Possibly—districts can affect contests on your ballot. Confirm your voter status and ballot info through the County Registrar.
