During the recent storms, a portion of El Toro Road (between Paseo De Valencia and Moulton Parkway) was closed. This closure was due to ongoing flooding at several intersections and a potential for roadway instability in the vicinity of the Laguna Woods Village underground golf cart tunnel.  

The City of Laguna Hills roadway improvements on Moulton Parkway, from west of Santa Maria Avenue to El Pacifico are currently out to bid, with construction expected to start in January 2010.

The following is a summary of the budget adopted by the City Council at its June 24, 2009 meeting. This budget is a $22 million package of services, programs and projects for the benefit of Laguna Woods' residents and businesses. It includes $9.5 million of current year programs and $12.5 million of capital improvement project funding carried forward from the prior fiscal years.

The City of Laguna Woods and the Historical Society of Laguna Woods partnered with OC Public Libraries on a digital storytelling project to record, preserve, and share stories of "California of the Past."  Digital storytelling combines emerging technology, community partnerships, and local history to create short videos with a glimpse of the past.  Stories featuring Laguna Woods residents detailed the historic past, immigration stories, World War II memories, and farmland tales.  To view the stories that were collected, as well as other stories from throughout Orange County, visit http://orangecounty.blip.tv.  You can also contact the Historical Society at 206-0150 if you wish to view DVD copies.
