What does this measure do?
Measure K would give Orange more say over local contracts and elections and protect land marked as open space. It would keep taxes the same, ban city limits on rent for private homes, and restart term limit counts for the mayor and council.
Proposed by: Orange City Council (Resolution 11707, July 14, 2026)
The city's elected council. It asked voters to adopt a city charter, a local rule book. Orange would change from a general-law city to a charter city with more control over its own affairs.

A YES vote means
A yes vote gives Orange more control over local rules. It protects marked open space, bars city limits on rent for private homes, and restarts term limit counts for the mayor and council.
A NO vote means
A no vote keeps the current city rules. The new open-space vote rule, ban on city rent limits, and restart of term limit counts would not take effect.
