They want to REPEAL:

• The Rural boundary (voted in favor of by almost 75% of voters)
• Revised Lake Pickett Study Area
• Vision 2050
• Orange Code

THIS also affects not just Orange County, but ALL counties. This will be a domino effect and developers WILL do the same across the state for any and all amendments they don't like.

CALL TO ACTION:

• Spread the word! Tell a neighbor, get other organizations involved, bring a friend, and share on social media supporting the Rural Boundary.
• We NEED people to speak and fill the chambers at the BCC Meeting on TUESDAY, July 15th, at 2pm.
• Email and call our Orange County Mayor and all County Commissioners to STOP the repeal!

Ask the BCC to:

• Defend the people of Orange County. We voted to protect the rural boundary. To even consider repealing or weakening that boundary, or any voter-approved amendments, is not just disrespectful—it’s undemocratic. This is a Charter Amendment; elected officials cannot repeal Charter Amendments. That power is reserved for voters.
• Honor the promises and commitments made to residents and uphold the principles of smart growth.
• Protect home rule and our right to self-govern
• Stand with Orange County residents, prioritize residents and voters over special interests with deep pockets.
• Vision 2050 (whether you agree will all parts or not) cost Orange County taxpayers nearly $5 million — that’s public money. Residents spent years showing up to workshops, sitting through presentations, reviewing maps, and giving feedback about how the BCC and people want this county to grow. Now the BCC is being asked to ignore that investment — to discard the community’s vision in favor of short-term developer interests.
