Orange County supervisors are set to consider a board subcommittee’s redistricting proposal. Every 10 years, the U.S. Census releases new population figures, triggering a process of redrawing the lines of political representation.

Tuesday’s public hearing on redistricting is the second of two the board must hold, according to a city staff report. A third hearing is set for Sept. 13.

In Santa Ana, the City Council is scheduled to consider a new map for the special tax district that funds Downtown Inc., the organization responsible for promoting and cleaning up the city’s downtown core. The map would shrink the boundaries of the district, excluding many of the outlying property owners who argue that they receive no benefit for their tax dollars.

Council members are also set to consider whether to schedule a public hearing to eliminate the special tax district. They’re also scheduled to consider classification changes at the city’s police department and the renaming of a future Latino cultural plaza at the corner of North French and East Fourth streets.

Here is a rundown of these items and more that are on this week’s public agendas:
