January 11, 2022

As part of an ongoing effort to conserve water, benefit the environment and beautify Mission Viejo, the City has embarked on the next phase of arterial landscape slope rehabilitation along a stretch of Jeronimo Road.

The work, which takes place on both sides of Jeronimo from Alicia to Montilla Lane, entails removing and replacing old, declining vegetation with drought-tolerant trees, shrubs and groundcover. The effort also includes evaluating trees for selective trimming or removal, renovating antiquated irrigation systems, installing Smart irrigation controllers and erosion-control measures.

The slope rehabilitation program along Jeronimo Road also utilizes recycled/reclaimed irrigation water adding to the overall citywide water conservation efforts.
