Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Aliso Viejo public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Road Repairs and Capital Projects
About $4 million in unspent project money was carried into the new budget so road work actually happens: Aliso Viejo Parkway rehab, Cedarbrook rehab, new bike lanes, and ADA pedestrian signals and City Hall improvements. Without this vote, the funding would have lapsed at fiscal year-end.
Citywide speed limit reductions on 33 street segments
The council chose four solar-powered movable speed-feedback signs ($8,000–$10,000 each) that can rotate among sheriff-identified speeding hotspots, rather than a permanent marquee sign that could cost $100,000 or more. Existing portable trailers will still serve special events.
Senior Mobility Program service hours
The five-year OCTA extension keeps senior transportation running with the city paying only about 20% of the cost, but a resident urged the council to seek earlier weekday hours (7:30 a.m. instead of 9) and weekend service so working seniors and those attending markets or church aren't excluded.
