Mayor Orsborn previously served as MAG Vice Chair, demonstrating his commitment to advancing the interests of Buckeye and the broader region.

During his term as Vice Chair, Mayor Orsborn was a strong advocate for accelerating the progress of infrastructure and transportation projects throughout the region. Mayor Orsborn often highlights how transportation growth directly benefits the West Valley, bringing new opportunities for residents and businesses, enhancing connectivity and improving the overall quality of life in the community.
