As we welcome more neighbors to the city, Menifee is quite literally
building community, as you can see from the construction all around town.
Motorists survived the “Menifee Merge” this spring so contractors could
begin constructing the new, larger Newport Road/I-215 overpass (see
page 10). Multiple buildings and commercial centers are under construction,
too, as city staff works to bring residents and visitors new restaurants,
shopping options, attractions and amenities (see page 6 to learn more
about this lengthy process). The city recently broke ground on the first
city-owned and built Fire Station in the Sun City neighborhood. The
Town Center Marketplace shopping center at Newport and Haun Roads
is set to open this summer and work on the Shops at The Lakes on
Newport and Laguna Vista Roads is underway as well.
In addition to physical growth, residents may notice a stronger sense of
community pride: More people are enjoying the city’s special events; the
parks are bustling with barbeques, parties and kids playing; and more
people than ever before (400!) volunteered at the spring Menifee Better
Together event. The Community Services Department has an exciting line-up
of summertime events and activities planned for the entire family (see
page 8). Join the fun and stop by the city’s special event booth to say hello.
Menifee is headed in the right direction; however, current general fund
expenditures will outpace revenue projections starting this upcoming fiscal
year. This equates to no new police officers in the next year. We will continue
to do our best with what we have, but are concerned about our upcoming
revenue shortfall. Our lost Vehicle License Fee (VLF) of over $4 million per
year, taken away by the Governor, is severely impacting our ability to make
necessary traffic, street, pothole and infrastructure improvements.
Even with our financial challenges, it is both humbling and exciting to
be part of a new community, shaping and defining itself for generations
to come.

CITY NEWS
Menifee honored as 2016 Playful City USA community
Playful City USA is a national recognition program that honors cities and towns across the
country for taking bold steps that make it easy for all kids to get the balanced and active play
they need to thrive. These communities are recognized for their efforts to create more playable,
family-friendly cities.
Menifee was one of 31 new cities, 257 total nationwide, to receive this designation and was
recognized for projects like Living Healthy Better Community and Parks Master Plan.
“It’s a huge honor to be named a Playful City USA,” said Menifee Mayor Scott Mann. “It not only
validates the many programs staff is implementing to encourage Menifee residents to get outside
and be active, it also makes the city eligible to apply for large grants to help fund more programs
and initiatives to promote an active youth community.”
Playground, trail, park shelter and
tree trimming projects prepare Menifee
for outdoor summer fun
Menifee’s Community Services Department is gearing up for a fun, busy
outdoor summer by completing multiple community enhancement projects.
These important maintenance and improvement projects were identified
as priority projects in the recently approved Parks Master Plan.
New tot-lot: Young children, ages two to five years, will enjoy the colorful, new tot-lot
playground and rubberized surface at Lazy Creek Park. The enclosed tot-lot is situated next to
the Lazy Creek Recreation Center and is used by the Tiny Tot program. The tot-lot is open for
public use when the program is not in session. The Tiny Tot program, for ages three to five
years, emphasizes youth development, recreation, fun and parent engagement. Funding for the
tot-lot project comes from Park Development Impact Fees (DIF), not through the city’s general
fund. For more information about the Tiny Tot Summer program, see page 9.
Trail Improvement Project: Work on the popular Paloma Wash Trail, a
2.1-mile (round trip) running, walking and biking trail along Haun Road
from Newport to Holland Roads, adjacent to the new Town Center
Marketplace, was completed in May. Contractors filled cracks and added
a new slurry seal cover, striping and permanent trail distance signage.
The trail improvements were funded by Trails Development Impact
Fees (DIF), not through the city’s general fund.
Trees and park amenities: Menifee’s Parks Department completed
a large tree-trimming project and added additional picnic shelters
and amenities in two local parks. The tree-trimming project included
work in four parks, along one street and in one street median. New
picnic shelters, barbeques, trash cans and picnic benches were installed
at E.L. Pete Peterson and Lyle Marsh Parks. Picnic shelters in Menifeeowned parks are available to rent for parties and events, please see
page 14 for details. Funding for this project was provided by Park
Development Impact Fees (DIF), not through the city’s general fund.

PUBLIC WORKS UPDATE
What’s
in it
for you?
Newport Road / Interstate 215
project update
10 Capital Improvement Program projects
4 Projects completed
1 Project under construction
5 Projects in design
$170 Million investment in the community
Holland Road Overpass
project moves forward
Menifee Merge-d! This spring, motorists conquered the Menifee Merge,
a new traffic pattern on Newport Road from Haun to Antelope Roads.
Traffic in both directions was diverted onto the north side of the overpass
for the dramatic teardown of the eastbound lanes.
This spring, the city issued a Draft Initial Study and
Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration notice for the
Holland Road/Interstate 215 Overcrossing project. The
community was encouraged to review and provide
public comment on the state-mandated document.
Contractors are now working on building the eastbound bridge and the
entire interchange project is on track to be completed this winter. Traffic
on the overpass will continue to be diverted until the project is nearly
complete.
The Holland Road/I-215 Overcrossing project, part of the
$170 million Menifee Moving Capital Improvement
Program (CIP), will construct another, much needed,
I-215 freeway overcrossing, providing an additional
east/west thoroughfare in Menifee to help reduce traffic
congestion. The project is located along Holland Road
from Haun Road to Hanover Lane.
Newport Road West Widening
project to begin
Specifically, the proposed project will construct a new
four-lane overcrossing at Holland Road that will span the
I-215 freeway and Antelope Road. Additionally, the
proposed project will realign Willowood Way; re-stripe
Hanover Lane and Albion Lane; construct an access road
for existing businesses on the west side of I-215; and
provide and relocate essential utilities. A temporary
construction laydown area is proposed at the north and
south portion of Holland Road at Haun Road.
The estimated $20 million CIP project will be funded
by Road, Bridge, Benefit District (RBBD) and Developer
Impact Fees (DIF) and is expected to start later this year,
once final funding is secured.
This summer, contractors will begin phase one of pre-construction work for
the Newport Road West Widening project. It’s the sixth of 10 Menifee
Moving Capital Improvement Program projects to be built. Newport Road
will be repaired and resurfaced from Bradley to Murrieta Roads. Contractors
will also lay cable to prepare the streetlights for synchronized timing.
Phase two of the project begins this winter, which includes reconstruction,
repaving and resurfacing parts of Newport Road from Haun to Murrieta
Roads. The project will add a new, partial, third eastbound lane fronting
Menifee Town Center and prepare the road for synchronized stoplight
timing. The $5 million CIP project is funded through Measure A restricted
funds for transportation and is expected to be completed in Spring 2017.

BRINGING BUSINESS TO MENIFEE
STEP ONE
Make contact with
Menifee’s wish list
of new businesses.
NO. Economic Development
“Attracting a
new business
to Menifee is
a delicate dance
of finding a business
or corporation that
is ready to expand,

Menifee is a good fit
for their business

Manager
and shopping opportunities,
along with a diverse retail base. In
addition to creating a community where
residents can work, dine and shop locally, the City of
Menifee benefits from sales tax revenues on purchases.
These revenues are used for public safety and city services.
While city staff works from a detailed plan to attract
specific businesses and industries to Menifee, it is
important to note that ultimately the city does not have
the final say about what businesses choose to locate in
Menifee. Because we live in a democratic, free-market
society, any business that purchases or leases a site and
abides by the city codes may do business in Menifee, and
landowners may sell or lease to whomever they choose.
