MISSION VIEJO
City officials expect the new Ladera Ranch project to have a positive effect on the city, whether or not the area becomes a part of Mission Viejo. The master-planned community, which Mission Viejo is considering annexing, stretches across 4,000 acres on the east side of Arroyo Canyon. Ladera will be developed in stages over the next 10 years by the Rancho Mission Viejo Co. “I feel like we are welcoming a new resident to the neighborhood,” Mayor Sherri M. Butterfield said.
