In our neighborhood, Conor, the first draft of the 1990 ward boundaries put
Lowry Hill East into two different Wards.  The neighborhood worked together
to oppose this and we ended up in the Tenth Ward.

P.S. Andy Kozak does not draw the lines.  There is a city redistricting
commission:

Mr. Kozak was on the commission in 1990.

Subject: [Mpls] neighborhood vs. ward boundaries

I'm sitting here looking over a map of Minneapolis neighborhoods and
comparing it to the Ward Map. How, when, and why are these boundaries
defined as they are? Why don't the ward boundaries correspond to the
neighborhood boundaries? If anyone has insight on this please fill me in.
I'm forever captivated by maps of the city.
