Cook County Board of Commissioners 12th district is a single-member electoral district for the Cook County Board of Commissioners. The district is located entirely within the municipal boundaries of the city of Chicago. It is currently represented by Bridget Degnen, a Democrat.

History

The district was established in 1994, when the board transitioned from holding elections in individual districts, as opposed to the previous practice of having two multi-member districts districts: one for ten members from the city of Chicago and another for seven members from suburban Cook County.[1]

Geography

1994 boundaries

When the district was first established, it was located entirely within the city of Chicago, representing parts of the North and Northwest sides of the city.[2]

2001 redistricting

New boundaries were adopted in August 2001, with redistricting taking place following the 2000 United States Census.[3]

The district's new boundaries still were fully laid within the city of Chicago. It represented parts of the North and Northwest sides of the city.[4][5]

2012 redistricting

The district currently, as redistricted in 2012 following the 2010 United States Census, in large part resembled the general geography it had in its previous, 2001, redistricting.[4][5][6][7][8] It continued to lay entirely within the city of Chicago, representing parts of the city's North Side and Northwest Side.[6][7][8]

The district was 19.11 square miles (12,229.79 acres).[6]

2022 redistricting

The district as redistricted in 2022, following the 2020 United States Census, contains a portion of the city of Chicago.[9]
