'Fo: Mayor Haila, Ames City Council
From: Mark O. Lambert, City Attorney
Date: December 17, 2021
Subject: Ordinance for new wards and precincts
On December 14, 2021, the Ames City Council decided to proceed with the ward and
precinct maps that had been prepared by the Story County Auditor's office.
Those maps have now been turned into an ordinance for your consideration.
The ordinance writing process was intense in the short time frame available and
involved myself and Assistant City Attorney Jane Chang working long hours to
complete it. We were aided significantly by the City's GIS Coordinator Ben
McConville. and City planners Julie Gould and Justin Moore.
We are doing a final review of the ordinance before sending it out to you and sending it
to the County Auditor's office for review. There are hundreds of little details that need
to be double checked. Therefore, we will provide the ordinance to you on Monday
morning. December 20, which will give us the weekend to do a final review.
The ordinance is being submitted sometime this evening to the Story County Auditor's
office for their review, as required by Iowa law. It is within the realm of possibility that
the Auditor's office might suggest changes. If they do, our plan is to incorporate their
suggested changes into the ordinance and get a new version of the ordinance to you
before the City Council meeting on Tuesday. December 21, 2021.
Along with the ordinance, there will be a Memorandum of Agreement with Story County
regarding a few items. State law requires that precincts follow Census blocks. The
Census designated incorrectly some census blocks as unincorporated. when they are
actually within the City limits. Therefore, we will have an agreement on the agenda
assigning those census blocks to precincts. Also, several unincorporated Census
blocks are not contiguous with and/or are in a separate legislative district from their

rural townships, and these unincorporated Census blocks will be added to an Ames
precinct. Note that this does not mean that they will be eligible to vote in City
elections, it only means that they will be assigned to an Ames precinct for voting
purposes. The Auditor's office will have separate "township ballots" for the few
individuals who reside in these areas. This is a common practice in the
red istricting/reprecincting process and such an agreement has been in place since the
last redistricting in 2011. The City and County independently came up with differing
numbering systems for the precincts, so you may get a new version of this agreement
prior to the Council meeting with different precincts numbers noted, but the census
blocks will remain the same.
In summary. 1) the ordinance will be sent to you on the morning of Monday. Dec. 20,
2021. The County Auditor will be reviewing it, and so please keep in mind that we
might have a revised ordinance before the Council meeting, after the County Auditor
comments upon it; and 2) attached is the draft agreement with the County (bearing in
mind that we might have a new version with different precinct numbers for the meeting,
but that will be the only change to it).
Staff is requesting a suspension of the rules to do all three readings on December
2151, because of the tight time frame. Iowa law requires such ordinances to be adopted
by January 3, 2022 at the latest.
