Today, Irvine has grown into what many describe as a “total destination,” a community boasting state-of-the-art transportation programs and systems, an enterprising business environment, stellar educational institutions and a team-like lifestyle.

Irvine’s noteworthy, present-day status didn’t evolve from happenstance. It’s the outcome of mastermind planners, and those engaged to institute the plan. Each day, the Irvine City leaders and staff work diligently to ensure a quality environment for the City’s future.

Using the City’s Strategic Business Plan and the General Plan, the Irvine City Council makes decisions, based on fiscal limitations, that will:

• Maintain and enhance Irvine’s physical environment that will prevent community deterioration
• Secure a safe community by assuring the right balance between public safety services and prevention strategies
• Encourage economic prosperity by attracting and retaining businesses and sales tax
• Promote effective government by assuring that the City organization is flexible, market-based and customer focused in its service delivery
