     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That partial or split precincts are identified in this joint resolution by an asterisk that precedes its designation within the description of a district.  The Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Standing Joint Legislative Committee on Reapportionment shall file with the Secretary of State of Mississippi the Split Precinct Block List developed in conjunction with the plan contained in this joint resolution that details the portions of the partial or split precincts that are contained within a district by census block number, and such document duly filed with the Secretary of State is hereby incorporated into and shall be construed to be an integral part of this joint resolution.

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the boundaries of the House of Representatives districts described above shall be:

          (a)  The boundaries of the counties listed above as such boundaries existed as of January 1, 2022; and

          (b)  The precinct boundaries along such House of Representative district boundaries as the precinct boundaries are contained in Census Bureau's Public Law 94-171 geographic support products provided for use with the September 16 data deliveries officially called the "2020 Census State Redistricting Data (Public Law 94-171) Summary Files."

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, (1)  That this resolution shall be liberally construed to effectuate the purposes hereof and to redistrict the House of Representatives districts of this state in compliance with constitutional requirements.  It is intended that this resolution and the districts described herein completely encompass all the area within the state.  It is also intended that such districts contain all the inhabitants in this state.  It is further intended that the redistricting provided for in this resolution result in the creation of districts that are as close to equal in population as permissible under the law.  It is also intended that no district shall include any of the area included within the description of any other district.

     (2)  If the districts described in this resolution do not carry out the purposes hereof because of:  unintentional omissions; duplications; overlapping areas; erroneous nomenclature; lack of adequate maps or descriptions of political subdivisions, wards or other divisions thereof, or of their boundary lines; then the Secretary of State, at the request of the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Standing Joint Legislative Committee on Reapportionment shall, by order, correct such omissions, overlaps, erroneous nomenclature or other defects in the description of districts so as to accomplish the purposes and objectives of this resolution.

     (3)  In promulgating such orders, the Secretary of State, in addition to achieving equality in the population of districts as permissible under law and ensuring that all areas of the state

are completely and accurately encompassed in such districts, shall be guided by the following standards:

          (a)  In any instance in which there is a conflict between the description of a district as provided in this joint resolution and the map of the House of Representative districts developed by the Standing Joint Legislative Committee on Reapportionment in conjunction with the adopted redistricting plan, the map shall control; however, in instances in which the map is inconclusive, the criteria provided in paragraphs (b) through (f) of this subsection shall control any dispute or issue regarding the composition of any House of Representative district;

          (b)  Gaps in the description of a district shall be completed in a manner that results in a total description of the district that is consonant with the description of adjacent districts and results in complete contiguity of districts;

          (c)  Areas of the state included within the descriptions of more than one (1) district shall be allocated to the district having the lowest population;

          (d)  Areas of the state not included within the descriptions of any district shall be allocated to the adjacent district having the lowest population;

          (e)  In the event that the area subject to corrected description or allocation as provided in paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) of this subsection is of such size or contains such population that its inclusion as a unit in any district would result in substantial disparity in the size, shape or population of the district, then the Secretary of State may allocate portions of the area to two (2) or more districts; and

          (f)  In any allocation of area or correction of descriptions made pursuant to this joint resolution, the Secretary of State shall, consistent with the foregoing standards, preserve the contiguity and compactness of districts and avoid the unnecessary division of political subdivisions.

     (4)  Copies of such orders shall be filed by the Secretary of State in his office and in the offices of the affected election commissioners and registrars.  The Secretary of State may adopt reasonable rules regulating the procedure for applications for orders under this resolution in the manner of serving and filing a notice or copy of orders relating thereto.  Upon the filing of an order, the description of any affected district shall be deemed to have been corrected in the manner provided in such order to the full extent as if such correction had been contained in the original description provided in this resolution.

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the redistricting of House of Representatives districts and Senate districts shall be deemed to be separate from each other.  The invalidity of the districts of one (1) house shall not affect or require the redistricting of the other house.

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Standing Joint Legislative Committee on Reapportionment is directed to provide all information necessary to assist the counties in identifying the boundaries of the districts described in this resolution.

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the redistricting contained in this resolution shall supersede any prior redistricting, and any prior redistricting shall be null and void upon the date this resolution is effectuated.

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Joint Legislative Committee on Compilation, Revision and Publication of Legislation is hereby directed to see to it that this resolution is placed in the editor's notes that follow Section 5-1-1, Mississippi Code of 1972.

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Standing Joint Legislative Committee on Reapportionment shall file copies of this plan with the Mississippi Department of Archives, the Secretary of State, the Clerk of the Mississippi House of Representatives and the Secretary of the Mississippi State Senate.

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That if any paragraph, sentence, clause, phrase or any part of this resolution is declared to be unconstitutional or void or if for any reason is declared to be invalid or of no effect, the remaining paragraphs, sentences, clauses, phrases or parts thereof shall be in no manner affected thereby but shall remain in full force and effect.

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the foregoing provisions of this resolution shall take effect and be in force from and after adoption.
