Show Messenger-Enterpris- Thursday, July 16, 1981 e, ' Page Commission submits reapportionment plan Planning underway for Three proposals for congressional redistributing have been prepared by the Utah Commission on Reapportionment for presentation to the public in hearings throughout the state in August. The Commission wants to have its work completed and a report submitted to Governor Scott Matheson in September. Three congressional districts must be created since census figures revealed population growth in the past 10 years entitles the state of Utah to three congressmen instead of two. State school board and legislative boundaries must also be changed due to shifts and an upward trend in population growth throughout the state. All three congressional districts must have nearly equal populations of about 487,000 people. Each must theoretically be as compact and contiguous as possible and maintain "communities of interest" together. In Utah's rural districts, this presents geographical problems. Each of the proposed districts in which Sanpete County would be located, for example, includes the metropolitan areas of part to each other.
