Working with plan attachments

You can add attachments to your redistricting plans. This allows you to associate documents with the plan or view existing attachments. Attachments can represent any information related to the plan. Examples of these documents could be:

• Word documents of instructions or constituent information
• Proposals for work
• Scanned maps for digitizing
• TIFFs to georeference

Note:

The upload file size cannot exceed 2 MB.
