Mayor Vi Lyles said Monday the city should have correctly sized districts before moving holding its next election.
The Charlotte City Council and Mayor Vi Lyles are in near consensus that the city can’t hold its elections this fall because of delays in the release of census data.
But council members decided to wait on formally postponing the September primary and November general election, based on the recommendation of City Attorney Patrick Baker during a meeting Monday night.
Baker said the city can wait until April or May to make the decision to postpone and wait for the General Assembly to give Charlotte and other impacted cities and towns guidance.
