Each year, attendance at the OCSC matches has grown. In fact most of the matches were sold out last year. To accommodate the club's growing fan base, the City approved plans to expand the stadium's capacity. Construction is currently underway.

A portion of Marine Way runs along the southern perimeter of the Great Park, north of the Metrolink railway. However, there is currently no direct rail crossing or direct road access into the Great Park from Marine Way and Barranca.

The new City-run library system continues to provide the free programs Irvine residents count on each week while expanding services to meet the unique needs of our local community.

Back in August, the first two libraries to open under the new City-run system were Heritage Park Library and University Park.

For the next few years, members of the OCPA board — including Irvine City Councilmember Kathleen Treseder, who serves as Irvine’s representative on the OCPA board — falsely told our City’s electricity customers they were paying lower monthly rates. Councilmember Treseder and others quoted the price for OCPA’s lowest-priced plan (Basic Choice) even though Irvine ratepayers had been enrolled in OCPA’s most expensive plan (100% Renewable), resulting in higher monthly rates.

However, the increase in the number of electric bikes (e-bikes) on Irvine sidewalks and streets has raised serious safety concerns. The Irvine Police Department has reported a growing number of e-bike collisions, with teens flying down City streets and pathways, crossing intersections without yielding to oncoming traffic, and demonstrating little regard for pedestrians and motorists they encounter.
