BCC and School Board districts for Eastern Lake

The maps at www.votewaltoncounty.com aren't very detailed. I'm on the west side of Eastern Lake. Does anyone know which districts I'm in?

Uh, nevermind...

I just looked at my voter registration card. District 5 for BCC, and 5 for School Board.

Odd, the maps seem to indicate District 1 for both.

Hwy 395 divides the district. West of 395 is district 5, east of 395 is district 1.

To Confirm: Eastern Lake is in District 1. Regardless, all Walton County voters may vote in the District 5 race even though the Commissioner 5 district is a SoWal seat. The person who gets elected will need to reside in District 5, I think come midnight of election day. (Otherwise they turn into a pumpkin!) All voters vote in School Board race. Hopefully, with the next redistricting after the 2010 census, District 1 will be redrawn and SoWal can once again have two commissioners.
