HB 41 Maryland House of Delegates · 2026 Regular Session

Baltimore County Board of Education - Alterations of Elected Member Districts and Establishment of Redistricting Process

HB 41 changes how Baltimore County School Board members are elected by replacing the current system of electing members from council districts with a new redistricting process. Starting with the 2034 general election, seven elected members will be chosen from new school board districts established through a redistricting process after each U.S. census. The bill requires the Baltimore County delegation chair to introduce redistricting legislation following the 2030 census, ensuring districts have roughly equal populations. This directly affects Baltimore County residents who vote for school board members and sets new rules for residency requirements and term limits.
