"The University Park Town Council is unanimously opposed to the adoption of either the October 14 “Davis” Plan, or the October 19 “amended Davis” Plan presented to the Council, and respectfully requests that the County Council take no action to approve them at its November 16 meeting, thereby allowing the Map and Plan as proposed by the Redistricting Commission to take effect."
