SACRAMENTO, CA – California Republican Party Chairman Tom Del Beccaro today sent a letter to the California Citizens Redistricting Commission calling for the immediate release of the proposed resolution or document it plans to use to "certify final maps" pursuant to the California Constitution. According to the CRP's letter, the Commission's failure to act violates the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act.
"This is the latest in a series of systematic failures to abide by the guidelines under which the Redistricting Commission was supposed to operate transparently and produce fair lines," said CRP Chairman Tom Del Beccaro.
The Government Codes listed in the CRP's letter mandate that the Commission comply with the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act requiring meeting records to be posted in a manner that ensures immediate and widespread public access, and that writings that are public records and are distributed to members of the Commission are to be made available to the public prior to or during a meeting at which they are discussed.
