On December 21, 2021, the Columbia City Council adopted Ordinance No.: 2021-098 - Amending the 1998 Code of Ordinances of the City of Columbia, South Carolina, Chapter 6, Elections, Sec. 6.-2, Method of election; election districts, (b)

The re-defining of the election district boundaries for redistricting purposes is  based  upon the 2020  U.S.  Census in  order  that  the  population  of  such Election Districts shall comply  with  the constitutional requirement of “One Person, One Vote” and the requirements set forth in the United  States Voting  Rights  Act  of  1965,  as amended.

The City of Columbia used this process as an opportunity to reduce the number of neighborhoods split between more than one council district!
