Background
Every 10 years the federal government conducts the United States Census and each community college district must update its trustee areas to reflect the latest population counts, so that they are equal in population. This requirement is both statutory and constitutional.
MiraCosta Community College District has engaged the services of Nielsen Merksamer Parrinello Gross & Leoni, LLP, Attorneys at Law to represent the District with its post-Census readjustment of Board of Trustee electoral areas, in compliance with Education Code §5019.5 and state and federal laws.
