Mulberry Holds First Public Forum on Redistricting Tonight at Studio 37
The City of Mulberry invites residents to weigh in on proposed redistricting maps at a public engagement forum, July 15, 2026, at 6 p.m. at Studio 37, located at 400 N. Church Ave in Mulberry.
Mulberry City staff collaborated with the city’s legal team to present proposed redistricting options to the public, outlining the advantages and potential risks. The goal, according to city documents, is to ensure sufficient representation for each district while maintaining compliance with Florida law.
If you can’t make it to tonight’s session, there is a weekend option for a second public engagement on Saturday, July 18, 2026, at 10 a.m., at Studio 37.
Residents wishing to speak at either forum can sign in upon arrival at Studio 37. Those with questions in advance may also contact the City Clerk’s office at 863.425.1125 or by email [email protected]
The City Clerk’s office has been leading coordination of the redistricting project, gathering records and compiling information to ensure attendees are well-informed going into the sessions.
The purpose of this Public Engagement Forum is to gather community input and feedback on redistricting options for the City of Mulberry Commission Districts.
One or more elected or appointed officials will be in attendance and participating in this forum. No action will be taken by the City Commission during this public engagement forum. The City Commission is expected to consider the redistricting maps at its next regular meeting, scheduled for July 21, 2026, at 6 p.m. in the City Commission Chambers.
