This is a short summary of how things will go.
There is a committee of representatives who will ultimately be in charge of redrawing the boundaries.
There are 14 Republicans on the committee, and 5 Democrats for a total of 19 committee members.
As I understand it each committee member will decide on a map for each of the types of boundaries that they feel represents the people of Utah most adequately.
The committee must draw four U.S. House districts (currently there are three), 29 state Senate seats (originally based on the 29 counties in Utah, but we are not currently adhering to that system), Up to 87 Utah House districts (at present there are 75 Utah House districts, but the committee has an option by law to create up to 87 House seats), and 15 state school board seats.
