The map shown is the Board of Supervisors districts, there are 5 of those. However there are 10 Justice of the Peace districts. It is pretty easy to conclude that the map for the Voard of Supervisors is NOT the same as the JP districts. Can anyone find a map of the JP districts?
Ask Pima County Communications Dept. for the map of all 10 Precincts.
Just curious why you would show a Board of Supervisors district map & not a Justice of the Peace precinct map. That is not a map of Justice of the Peace precinct 2.
That map above is the one posted by Supervisor Valdez as being Precinct 2. Here’s the map for District 2 which appears to be larger:

Georgia is right, it is nearly impossible to find an annotated map of the justice precincts for Pima County.
Is there a map of the Precinct available. I have no idea where this is.
