The map covers an area from approximately 33rd West Avenue to Sheridan Road, and from I-244 to 61st Street.  Below the maps you'll find a table showing the precinct numbers for selected neighborhoods in Midtown, the current district number, and the district number for each of these plans. (NOTE: Some of  the listed neighborhoods are not members of the Midtown Coalition.)

Analysis

In 1991, most of Midtown was assigned to Districts 4 and 9, with Riverview and part of North Maple Ridge assigned to 2 along with west and far south Tulsa, Highland Park assigned to 7, and Kendall-Whittier north of I-244 in District 3.

District 4 changed little in the new plan.  All of the new plans move Owen Park and Irving Neighborhoods from 4 to 1, and all move Riverview and North Maple Ridge from 2 to 4.

District 9 lost territory south of 61st, but gained some precincts between Harvard and Yale from 7.

Maple Ridge south of 21st remains in 9.

Highland Park moves from 7 to 5, as most of District 7 moves south to accommodate tremendous population growth.

Brookside successfully objected to being split between 2 and 9 and remains entirely in 9.
