A. Following each decennial Federal census, and using population figures as validated by the population research unit of the Department of Finance as a basis, the Board shall adjust the boundaries of any or all of the supervisorial districts of the County so that the districts shall be as nearly equal in population as may be. At any time between the decennial adjustments, the Board may make adjustments of district boundaries pursuant to State law. In establishing the boundaries of the districts, the Board may give consideration to the following factors:

1. Topography;

2. Geography;

3. Cohesiveness, contiguity, integrity and compactness of territory; and

4. Community of interests of the districts.

B. The Board of Supervisors shall establish and adjust the boundaries by ordinance. The changes shall be reflected in a map of supervisorial districts which shall be available for public inspection at the Department of Planning and Building.
