City wins Rose Award from OC Taxpayers Association
The City of Mission Viejo recently received a Rose Award from the OC Taxpayers Association. Rose Awards are given to individuals or organizations that have been friends to taxpayers in the previous year. Mission Viejo?s ?Improve Don?t Move? Program incentivized homeowners and businesses to build within the City by waiving and reducing building permit fees. The pilot program saved Mission Viejo residents and businesses over $500,000 during the last six months and it generated more than $23 million in economic activity. The pilot program included building permit fee waivers of 100% for residential projects, a 25% reduction in commercial permit fees and a waiver of the Certificate of Occupancy fee for business owners applying for a certificate with no tenant improvements. This program also offered amnesty for any residential or commercial renovation, which had been completed without permits, by waiving any accrued penalties during the past six months. This program was funded with a portion of the $1.8 million budget surplus from 2011.

The Mission Viejo Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors recently selected officers for the next year.
