2024-2243RESOLUTION NO. 2024-2243
Resolution amending the City of Janesville Polling Place Plan to accommodate State Legislation that
reestablished District Boundaries through the adoption of Wisconsin 2023 Act 94 and allowing for
the consolidation of Polling Places during Primary Elections.
WHEREAS the Rock County Board created 29 new supervisory districts based on the 2020 Census; and the
City of Janesville is required to create wards within each Supervisory District, creating 25 wards in its initial
ward plan; and
WHEREAS, the City of Janesville was also required to assign all wards to polling places and the City Council
approved the original ward plan and polling place plan on November 8, 2021, and the City utilized the plan
for the April 2022 election prior to the State and Federal redistricting court cases being decided by the
Wisconsin Supreme Court; and
WHEREAS, on April 15, 2022, the Wisconsin Supreme Court, in Johnson v. Wisconsin Elections
Commission, adopted state legislative district maps drawn by the Wisconsin Legislature after the United
States Supreme Court, in Wisconsin Legislature et al. v. Wisconsin Elections Commission et al. and Glenn
Grothman et al. v. Wisconsin Elections Commission et al., reversed the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s decision
with regard to state legislative districts resulting in additional wards and renumbering of many wards for
logistical implementation until 2030; and
WHEREAS Wisconsin 2023 Act 94 was signed into law that amended Senate and Assembly District
boundaries, requiring yet another amendment to the electoral ward boundaries and polling place plan; and
WHEREAS City Council adopted File Ordinance 2024-843 recreating Electoral Ward Boundaries on May 13,
2024. The final requirement is for the City Council to adopt an amended polling place plan.
