PBEM offers the following rules and guidance to NETs when developing their Service Area Boundaries: | |||
=== Service Area Rules === | |||
PBEM will only approve Service Areas if they conform with these rules: | |||
# '''Service Area boundaries shall not overlap with the Service Area boundaries of another team.''' "Enclaved" boundaries are acceptable. | |||
# Exclaves are not permitted; except in unusual circumstances, boundaries must be contiguous. | |||
=== General Guidance/Suggestions === | |||
The following conditions are not required: | |||
# PBEM recommends that most of the Service Area be inside City of Portland city limits. | |||
# Optimally, a Service Area includes one BEECN and one fire station. | |||
# PBEM prefers and recommends square/rectangular-shaped Service Areas with four sides (they are easier to process on mapping tools). PBEM will reject [https://thefulcrum.us/worst-gerrymandering-districts-example highly gerrymandered] Service Areas. | |||
