Description: The Voting Precinct feature class displays the voting precinct boundaries for Bedford County, VA, following the 2013 Redistricting process.
Copyright Text: Source data for this feature class is from the 2011 USGS TIGER file data of Census blocks for both Bedford County, VA and the Town of Bedford, VA.
Description: Voting Districts were first produced in GIS format during the 2001 Redistricting process, by County GIS staff. Following the 2010 Census, boundaries were redrawn. An additional Redistricting process was necessary following the July, 2013 Reversion agreement between Bedford County and the City(now Town) of Bedford). The Town's administrative boundary was redrawn, and the Voting Districts were redrawn to incorporate Town of Bedford citizens who, upon Reversion, became citizens of the County and would now participate in County elections.

Description: Boundary limits originate from USGS data as well as tax map data. The Boundary between Bedford County and Bedford City was changed in July, 2013 by County GIS staff, after the reversion of Bedford City to Town status. GIS Staff made these changes based on parcel data being exchanged from the County to the Town of Bedford per Reversion agreement.
