Part Of Exhibit A. Hereto Attached
7 Hon Board of County Commissioners
Garter County, Ardmore, Okla.
In answering your inquiry as to the
procedure used in arranging the
boundaries OF the commissioners dis
tricts in Garter county. We direct
your attention to Section 1888, Revised
Laws of 1910. which reads as follows:
DISTRICTS. Each county shall be
divided by the Board of County Com
missioners into three compact districts,
as equal in population as possible.
numbered respectively one two and
three, and subject TO alteration at
least once in three years. and one com
missioner shall be elected from each
Of said districts by the voters of the
district, as heretofore provided.
This seems to be the only provision
in the statute concerning the point
inquired about and there is no special
statute prescribing the procedure to
be followed by the County Commits
sloners in arranging such districts.
II is therefore the opinion Of this
office that the matter Of the proceed
ure is left TO the discretion of the
Beard OF County Commissioners, sub
!eo;. however to the general laws gov
cyl ing procedure of the Board Of
County Commissioners.
Respectively yours,
