2022-2022 RESOLUTION NO. 2022-2022
Resolution amending the City of Janesville Polling Place Plan to accommodate State
Legislation and Congressional Boundaries as a result of State and Federal redistricting map
adoption 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 was required to create wards within each Supervisory District; 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; and
WHEREAS, the result of the Court's decision statutorily obligated the City of Janesville to amend ward
boundaries that do not align with the selected state legislative maps, resulting in additional wards and
the renumbering of many wards for logistical implementation for the next ten years.

hereby assigns the City wards to the following polling places for all general elections:
