(A) The Common Council shall be composed of nine members, three of whom shall be elected on an at-large basis and six of whom shall represent the districts in which they reside.
(B) The six districts referred to shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of state law; however, nothing in this section shall be construed to invalidate the redistricting set out in Ordinance 5115 (§ 30A.02 of this code) of the Common Council. For the purpose of redistricting required by state law, January 1, 1982 shall be considered to constitute the base year and date of the most recent redistricting of the councilmanic districts of the city.
