    Columbus Grove or Portola Springs

    You're talking about the part of Tustin Legacy (Columbus Square and future development) that's in the Tustin USD. All of Columbus Grove as well as Tustin Field I and II is in the Irvine USD. Any future TUSD schools are a non-issue.

    Columbus Grove or Portola Springs

    I think you're mixing up Columbus Grove and Columbus Square. 1. Portion south of Warner is Irvine city. 6. All of Columbus Grove (Irvine and Tustin) is in the Irvine school district. No new schools planned. 10. No problem with planting fruit trees. Columbus Grove is built on what used to be base...

    Willow Bend (formerly Vista Verde) in University Park

    We got there at around 10:30 AM and it wasn't as crowded as the Branches grand opening when we came at the same time. I think they were expecting a bigger crowd because this time there were two coffee baristas and two animal balloon makers compared to one of each at the Branches opening. Also...

    I've been approached at a gas station in Irvine for gas money by a guy driving a nice SUV. Also, at a gas station in Aliso Viejo, a guy on a motorcycle asked for gas money to go to his grandfather's funeral.

    Irvine's special park

    I you want a park with a view and a kid friendly trail to the top, check out Citrus Ranch Park in Tustin Ranch at the corner of Portola and Jamboree.  It opened in 2010. There is also a nice playground at the bottom of the hill. http://www.ocregister.com/articles/park-236698-ranch-citrus.html

    Couple found dead in Irvine apartment parking structure

    Turned onto my quiet residential street in Irvine and there were four police officers standing behind a police car with searchlights pointing at oncoming traffic. They had rifles out. I hope this is over soon.

    There was an Irvine PD police car parked on my street overnight. This morning there are two police officers standing outside the vehicle wearing riot helmets. I wonder if they are protecting someone related to this case? This is near Harvard and Barranca.

    That location did not have a drive-through. I'm sure that affected business.
