Mayors Calling for Unity Among their Municipalities

In a landmark move, Mayor John Rees of Winter Garden and Mayor Rusty Johnson of Ocoee have called upon the OCFL Redistricting Committee to unite the historic municipalities of West Orange County under one district.

This unprecedented step signals the birth of a powerful West Orange Municipal Alliance. For decades, these cities have shared common interests, values, and challenges, yet southern growth has drowned out their voices at the county level.

This joint action by two sitting mayors makes one thing clear: the time has come to united the historic region of west orange as the cohesive body they are and to allow the southern growth to flourish in a district where they are the focus. A united municipal district isn't just reasonable, it’s necessary for effective representation and the preservation of West Orange’s unique identity.
