The Nassau County Legislature’s Rules Committee will discuss the county’s redistricting process following a November stalemate reached by the bipartisan Temporary Districting Advisory Commission.

The 11-member committee made up of five Democrats, five Republicans and one nonvoting chairman, voted along party lines for a pair of resolutions to submit maps to the county’s Republican-controlled legislature in November. The Rules Committee meeting will take place on Jan. 17 at 11 a.m.

County officials encouraged residents to view the proposed map from each delegation, all materials and prior comments from commission meetings ahead of the meeting. Residents who wish to make additional comments can do so by submitting them to [email protected] before the meeting.

The county Legislature, comprised of 12 Republican officials and seven Democrats, is now in charge of reviewing all of the maps, public input and materials obtained by the commission and drawing their own district lines.

New district lines are required to be adopted by the county Legislature in March, officials said.

The map was last redrawn in 2013. Democratic officials have chastised Republicans for their lack of transparency in developing the 2023 map. They contend that the Republican proposal allows officials to select their representatives rather than the public.

Commission Chairman Frank X. Moroney said Democratic committee member David Mejias’ prediction of litigation was something he had heard from the start of the redistricting process. Moroney said Republican officials asked the Democratic commission to work across the aisle, saying the Democrats “did not want to do that.”

“The only thing that happened here is that the Republicans of Nassau County have guaranteed litigation over an illegal map,” Mejias said following the vote. “If and when they lose, it’s going to cost the taxpayers millions of dollars.”

A total of three map proposals were submitted to the commission: one Republican and two Democratic versions. The Republican proposal closely resembles the current map.

District 9 currently includes Albertson, East Williston, Garden City Park, Mineola, Munsey Park, New Hyde Park, Plandome, Plandome Heights, Plandome Manor, Roslyn Estates and Williston Park. It would remain the same under the Republican suggestion.

District 10 currently includes Kings Point, Great Neck, Lake Success, Herricks, Manhasset, Manhasset Hills, North Hills and Searington. It would remain the same under the Republican suggestion.

District 11 currently includes Glen Cove, Glen Head, Glenwood, Port Washington, Roslyn, Roslyn Harbor, Sands Point and Sea Cliff. It would remain the same under the Republican proposal.

District 18 currently includes Bayville, East Hills, East Norwich, Glen Cove, Glen Head, Greenvale, Jericho, Locust Valley, Mill Neck, Muttontown, Old Westbury, Roslyn Heights, Syosset and Woodbury. It would remain the same under the Republican proposal.

However, some of the largest differences between the current map and the Republican map can be found in three districts – 2, 8 and 14.

District 2 currently includes Hempstead, Hicksville, Lakeview, Malverne, New Cassel, Rockville Centre, Uniondale, West Hempstead and Westbury. This would change to New Cassel, a portion of East Meadow, Uniondale, Hempstead, West Hempstead and Garden City South.

District 8 currently includes Bellerose, Bellerose Terrace, Elmont, Floral Park, Franklin Square, New Hyde Park, Stewart Manor and West Hempstead. This would change to Floral Park, Malverne Park Oaks, Franklin Square, Stewart Manor, Bellerose and Bellerose Terrace.

District 14 currently includes Carle Place, Garden City, Garden City South and portions of Bethpage, Franklin Square, Hempstead, Hicksville, Jericho, Plainview, West Hempstead and Westbury.

The two Democratic proposals are very similar, but there are some key differences.
