In 2010 the state parliament passed the "First State Law on Local and Administrative Reform" with the aim of improving the efficiency, competitiveness and administrative power of local structures. For municipalities it was determined that they should include at least 12,000 inhabitants (main residence on June 30, 2009).
With 9,397 inhabitants, the community of Waldbreitbach fell short of the minimum number of inhabitants, while the community of Rengsdorf had 16,434 inhabitants on the reporting date.
On October 7, 2016, the mayors of the two municipalities of Rengsdorf and Waldbreitbach signed an agreement for a voluntary merger.
On April 13, 2017, the “State law on the merger of the municipalities of Rengsdorf and Waldbreitbach” was passed in the state parliament.
