Voting Districts 
In November 2007, following a citizen initiated petition, an amendment to the Home Rule Charter was passed, calling for the formation of Election Districts within the Town of Windsor. A Districting Commission established six election districts in accordance with the provisions of the Charter. Provisions include that the variance in the number of registered voters between districts shall not exceed 15%. 

On September 11, 2023, the Town Board approved Ordinance 2023-1681 which revised the election boundaries within the Town of Windsor. The Districts were revised to remain in compliance with the Home Rule Charter.
