4-102 - Maps; Congressional, Senatorial, Assembly and Election Districts.

§  4-102.  Maps;  congressional,  senatorial,  assembly  and  election
  districts.   1. The state board of elections,  at  the  expense  of  the
  state,  shall  publish  maps showing the county or counties contained in
  each of the congressional districts, senatorial districts  and  assembly
  districts of the state.
2.  Where  a  portion  of  a county is contained in any congressional,
  senatorial or assembly district, the state board  shall  publish  a  map
  showing  the  portion  of  such county contained in each such respective
  district. Such map or maps shall show  the  extreme  boundaries  of  the
  portion  of the county so contained, as described by the street boundary
  and shall have printed thereon the names of the streets or  public  ways
  bounding the district; provided however, that where the extreme boundary
  consists  of the boundary line of any city, town or village, it shall be
  sufficient to so indicate, without showing or naming individual  streets
  or public ways.
3.  The  state  board shall also publish three individual maps of each
  borough  of  the  city  of  New  York,  which  shall  show  all  of  the
  congressional   districts  or  parts  thereof,  all  of  the  senatorial
  districts or parts thereof, and all of the assembly districts  or  parts
  thereof contained in such borough.  Each such map shall show the extreme
  boundaries  of  the  districts  to  which it refers, as described in the
  street boundary and shall have printed thereon the names of the  streets
  or public ways bounding the district.
4.  All  such  maps  shall  be to scale. Pertinent copies of such maps
  shall be filed and kept open to public inspection as follows: one in the
  office of the town or city clerk, except in the city of New York; one in
  the office of every board of elections, and each branch office, if  any.
  Surplus  copies if any, may be sold at cost and the proceeds remitted to
  the  state  board  of  elections.  Whenever  the   boundaries   of   any
  congressional,  senatorial,  or assembly district are altered, the state
  board of elections shall publish revised copies of those  maps  affected
  by  such  boundary alteration and make the distribution required in this
  subdivision.
5. a. A map or separate maps of uniform scale  of  election  districts
  within  a  town  or  ward, or, in the city of New York and the county of
  Nassau, within an assembly district, wholly within such city  or  county
  or  within  that  portion  of  any assembly district within such city or
  county, shall be made by the board or  body  creating  or  altering  the
  districts  so  that  the  map  or maps on file at any time will show the
  existing election districts in such town, ward,  assembly  district,  or
  the appropriate portion of such assembly district.
b.  In  a  city, street corner numbers of the block or blocks defining
  the extreme boundaries of each election district shall be printed on the
  map or maps, within or outside the block line or lines, so  as  to  show
  plainly  the  highest  and  lowest  street  numbers  within the election
  district of every street bounding the district.
c. Copies of such maps or descriptions shall be filed and kept open to
  public inspection as follows: one in the office  of  the  town  or  city
  clerk, except in the city of New York; one in the office and each branch
  office, if any, of the board of elections.
d. One copy of each map shall be delivered, upon request, to the state
  board  of elections and to a person or officer designated jointly by the
  speaker of the assembly and the temporary president of the senate.  Each
  time  an  election  district  boundary  is changed a copy of the new map
  shall be sent to each such board, person or officer  who  has  requested
  such  maps.  Surplus  copies  of maps of election districts in a city or
  town may be sold at cost and the proceeds paid to the  county,  city  or
  town which incurred the expense of preparing the maps.

6.  In  a  town,  after  the  creation  or  alteration of any election
  district therein, the board of elections shall furnish to the inspectors
  of election in each election district, on the first day of  registration
  or  election  occurring  after such change, a map or dsecription showing
  such election district.
