With the new Stay-At-Home order in effect in Southern California, the City of Mission Viejo continues to provide services to the community while taking precautionary measures to help slow the spread of COVID-19.

The City of Mission Viejo continues to monitor the Bond Fire, which possibly began with a house fire in Silverado Canyon. As of 3:30 pm today, there was no immediate fire threat to Mission Viejo from the more than 7,200-acre fire.

Early morning, the City activated its Emergency Operations Center (EOC) in response to the fire burning in Silverado/Williams Canyon.

Since the start of the pandemic, the City of Mission Viejo has proactively worked to keep the public apprised of COVID-19 directives from the State and County and best practices to stay healthy and safe.

The Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) and KWAVE are teaming up to collect and distribute toys to nonprofits throughout Orange County. With the ongoing pandemic, the need for toys has never been greater.

Many people are out of work and unable to provide gifts for their young children and teenagers. So far, more than 32,000 toys have been requested. You can help by donating new, unwrapped toys and sports equipment through a drive-through toy donation event on Saturday, December 5 from 9 am to 1 pm at Crossline Church in Laguna Hills at 23331 Moulton Parkway.

From beginning guitar and ukulele to iPhone photography and abstract painting, the City's artistic virtual classes will have you embracing your creativity.

An array of online classes kick off in November. Check them out and register at this link today.

NOTE: The document shredding event originally scheduled for November 7 has been postponed due to predicted rain. The new date is November 14.
