Council Districts used for the 2006 election
The 2006 election used the eight district boundaries created by the 2000 Redistricting Commission. Seats in districts 2, 4, 6, and 8 were up for election.
Although the election featured four incumbent candidates, only Donna Frye had previously served a full term on the city council. Kevin Faulconer and Ben Hueso both were serving partial terms after winning special elections to fill the seats vacated by the resignations of Michael Zucchet and Ralph Inzunza respectively. Tony Young had also served a partial term after winning a special election to fill the vacancy created by the death of Charles L. Lewis.
