Henrico supervisors to weigh 2 options in Census-driven reapportionment process

Henrico officials are expected to begin the process of redrawing the boundaries of the county’s five magisterial districts this summer – a process that is mandated every decade, once detailed results from the latest U.S. Census become available.

Previous iterations of the exercise have been termed “redistricting” efforts, but county officials now are calling the process a reapportionment, in order not to confuse residents who are accustomed to hearing the former term in connection with school boundary changes.

On hand to witness and celebrate the grand re-opening of “this re-imagined Belmont,” as county manager John Vithoulkas called it, were a host of county officials, community leaders, and golfers of all ages – including a group of students of First Tee – Greater Richmond.
