Overview

• County commissioners voted 5-2 to adopt Map-7B after a public hearing, concluding months of redistricting work.
• The adopted map keeps Winter Park in District 5 rather than moving it into the new District 7 as proposed in Map 1-A.
• Maitland shifts into District 7 with unincorporated Pine Hills and Orlo Vista under the new boundaries.
• Supporters cited concerns that adding affluent Winter Park to District 7 could weaken Pine Hills’ influence, while Winter Park officials argued for alignment with neighboring municipalities.
• The map implements the voter-approved expansion from six to eight commission seats, with primaries in August 2026 and the general election in November 2026.
