Overview

The City of Mission Viejo's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) provides for construction, improvement, and maintenance of various public facilities.  Projects fall into one of four major categories:  General Infrastructure; Roadway Rehabilitation; Transportation Systems/Traffic Capacity; and Parks, Recreation, and Municipal Facilities.  There are two major phases to each project:  Design and Construction.  

General Infrastructure 

Catch Basin Debris Screens
Construction: Summer 2025
Contractor:  TBD

The Residential Resurfacing Program is an annual program for removing and replacing deficient concrete and asphalt and resurfacing public streets in designated residential areas (including fixing potholes, sealing cracks, slurry seal, and completely resurfacing the public streets).  Any questions relating to residential resurfacing can be addressed to Manny Alonso, Public Works Project Inspector 714-707-7847 or email maalonso@cityofmissionviejo.org
