This article describes a districting study undertaken for the Cote-des-Neiges local community health clinic in Montreal. A territory must be partitioned into six districts by suitably grouping territorial basic units. Five districting criteria must be respected: indivisibility of basic units, respect for borough boundaries, connectivity, visiting personnel mobility, and workload equilibrium. The last two criteria are combined into a single objective function and the problem is solved by means of a tabu search technique that iteratively moves a basic unit to an adjacent district or swaps two basic units between adjacent districts. The problem was solved and the clinic management confirmed its satisfaction after a 2 year implementation period.
