A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO ADOPT A HOUSE REDISTRICTING PLAN FOR THE UNION COUNTY AREA.

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
SECTION 1.  G.S. 120‑2 is rewritten to read:
"§ 120‑2.  House apportionment specified.
(a)	For the purpose of nominating and electing members of the North Carolina House of Representatives in 2002 and periodically thereafter; the State of North Carolina shall be divided into the following districts:
This section is only for the following Districts:  34, 108.
District 34: Mecklenburg County:  Precinct 139; Union County:  Precinct 02, Precinct 03, Precinct 05, Precinct 07, Precinct 09, Precinct 17, Precinct 18, Precinct 19, Precinct 20, Precinct 21, Precinct 22, Precinct 23, Precinct 24, Precinct 25, Precinct 26, Precinct 27, Precinct 28, Precinct 31, Precinct 33, Precinct 41, Precinct 42, Precinct 43.
District 108: Union County:  Precinct 01, Precinct 04, Precinct 06, Precinct 08, Precinct 10, Precinct 11, Precinct 12, Precinct 13, Precinct 14, Precinct 15, Precinct 16, Precinct 29, Precinct 30, Precinct 32, Precinct 34, Precinct 35, Precinct 36, Precinct 37, Precinct 38, Precinct 39, Precinct 40.
(b)	The names and boundaries of precincts (voting tabulation districts), tracts, block groups, and blocks specified in this section are as they were legally defined and recognized in the 2000 United States Census. Boundaries are as shown on the Redistricting Census 2000 TIGER Files, with modifications made by the Legislative Services Office on its computer database as of May 1, 2001, to reflect precincts divided or renamed as outlined in subsection (c) of this section. However, in Robeson County PHILADEPLUS is, in fact, PHILADELPHUS, and in Vance County SANDY SCREEK is, in fact, SANDY CREEK. If the boundary line between Iredell and Mecklenburg Counties in the Redistricting Census 2000 TIGER Files conflicts with that provided by Section 1 of Session Law 1998‑15 as rewritten by Session Law 2001‑429, Section 1 of Session Law 1998‑15 as rewritten by Session Law 2001‑429 prevails to the extent of the conflict.
(c)	The Legislative Services Office modified on its computer database some of the precincts shown on the Redistricting Census 2000 TIGER Files to reflect precincts divided or renamed by county boards of elections after the TIGER Files were completed. As a result, precincts are shown differently on the Legislative Services Office computer database from the TIGER Files in the following counties:
