Who’s My Trustee?

There are five trustee areas within the Monterey Peninsula Community College District. Following each U.S. Census, trustee area boundaries are evaluated to ensure equal population distribution within the allowed 10% deviation.  Any changes approved by the trustees are submitted to the U.S. Department of Justice for preclearance, as required by the U.S. Voting Rights Act. Copies of documents related to past redistricting processes are available for public review in the Office of the Superintendent / President.
