In November 2024, Orange County voters approved a charter amendment to expand the number of commission districts from six to eight. The Orange County Board of County Commissioners is undertaking a redistricting process to establish new district boundaries and incorporate the two additional districts. To support this effort, the Board formed the 2025 MRAC in January 2025. The committee is responsible for:
- Public meetings to gather community input
- Reviewing census data
- Proposing the boundaries for two new commission districts and recommending adjustments to existing districts
- Submitting a non-binding recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners for review in September 2025
