Applicant Review Panel Determination of the Most Qualified Applicants for Independent Citizens’ Redistricting Commission Interpretation of City Charter Article 11 (A) May 16, 2013 Background On November 16, 2012, City of Austin voters approved a city charter amendment which provides for the election of city council members from 10 geographical single-member districts, beginning with the election in November 2014. The boundaries of the 10 districts will be drawn by an Independent Citizens’ Redistricting Commission (ICRC). Applicants for a position on the ICRC must meet certain requirements, such as being a registered voter in the City of Austin for the previous five years and being free of conflicts of interest. Applicants for the ICRC were required to disclose their voting history (for non-students), current address, voter ID number, and any conflicts of interest. The city auditor reviewed the applications to validate minimum requirements. The charter amendment also created a 3-member Applicant Review Panel (ARP) to evaluate the applications and select the 60 most qualified applicants based on the following criteria: 1. Relevant analytical skills 2. Ability to be impartial 3. Residency in various parts of the City, and 4. Appreciation for the City of Austin’s diverse demographics and geography On March 11, 2013, the city auditor provided the ARP with 450 applications which met the minimum requirements. The applications included free-form questions so the candidates could describe how they meet the criteria in the city charter. This document describes how the ARP evaluated the applicants to determine the most qualified according to the criteria above. Relevant Analytical Skills Do the applicant’s background and/or experience show that they have used analytical skills in the past? This experience could be either in the workforce or in life. Applicants who gave direct examples scored higher in this area than people who gave general descriptions. An applicant does not rank high in this area by merely saying he or she has analytical skills. There must be an indication in his or her occupational, educational or other history which shows experience in using analytical skills. The experience may be gained by running a business, being in occupations which require data analysis or having hobbies which involve analytical skills. Applicants who have a background in analyzing census data, identifying groups with common interests or using mapping software have higher rankings in relevant analytical skills. Ability to be Impartial Does the application show that the applicant has and …

[City of Austin letterhead] [Internal Address] RE: Application for Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission Dear [Mr./Ms – determined by gender field in data base] [Last name (will need to be parsed in Excel], Thank you for answering the call for applicants to the Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission. The Applicant Review Panel (ARP) has reviewed your application received [date from data base]. After the City Auditor reviewed the applications for minimum requirements, 450 applications remained to be reviewed by the ARP. We regret that you were not selected for the list of 60 applicants to be recommended to the City Council for the random drawing of Commission members. However, we did note your strong abilities and willingness to serve the City. Because you have much to offer as a volunteer and independent citizen, we urge you to stay involved in the process by attending Commission meetings or reviewing the status of the initiative on the web site at http://www.austintexas.gov/department/10‐one. Another option would be to visit the web site at http://www.austintexas.gov/department/boards‐and‐commissions to determine if there is another board or commission that matches your interests. We wish you the best in your future endeavors. Sincerely, Michelle DeFrance Carol Feller Caroline Limaye
