Let's celebrate Irvine's park system ranking #2 in the nation by the Trust for Public Land, for the second year in a row!

94% of Irvine residents live within a 10-minute walk of a park, including the Orange County Parks's beautiful, spacious William R. Mason Regional Park, where I look forward to a summer full of biking the paths, picnicking under trees, and enjoying concerts in the park.

The 2028 Olympics present Orange County with a once-in-a-generation opportunity. At our Olympics Ad-Hoc Committee meeting this week, we discussed the role the County of Orange will play as we prepare to welcome thousands of visitors.

The county will best serve as liaison, convening key partners to ensure alignment across airport operations, hospitality, dining, and unique transportation options.

I proposed we develop a clear workback plan that brings all major voices to the table. Because the county lacks a formal economic development plan, my primary goal remains to strengthen our county’s amenities to ensure we maximize our economic impact and lay the groundwork for future major events.

Thank you to all who joined us at the 31st Annual Balboa Island Parade as it rolled down Marine Avenue. We enjoyed celebrating this year’s theme, “Good Vibrations,” with the island spirit and neighborly connection that defines this charming Newport Beach community.

This week on the OCFA Board of Directors, I voted to approve the OC Fire Authority Fiscal Year 26-27 budget to strengthen wildfire readiness, protect long-term fiscal stability, and invest in personnel and emergency equipment.

The budget balances ongoing revenues and expenditures, keeps reserves intact, and dedicates funding for capital needs. OCFA also continues to pay down long-term costs from past pension and retiree medical commitments. Due to responsible payments, OCFA reduced future debt, saved more than $115 million in interest, and moved closer to fully funding retirement obligations without passing those costs to future budgets.

This budget also adds 24-hour dozer and heavy equipment support for wild land and all risk incidents, expands fire prevention capacity, strengthens academy training, improves fleet maintenance, and supports community education. These investments help OCFA better protect Orange County families.

This E-bike Day, let’s ride safely. In 2025, e-bike injuries became the leading cause for trauma visits according at Rady Children’s Hospital. https://care.choc.org/new-rady-childrens-led-e-bike-study-addresses-speed-related-trauma-risk-for-kids-and-teens/

At the County, we adopted strong rules for e-bike safety, including helmet requirements, speed limits, and accountability for unsafe riding.

Parents, help us make sure your kid respects the rules of the road, with helmets, street legal bikes, and slow riding near pedestrians. Most importantly, know the difference between an e-motto motorcycle and an electric pedal assist bike. You must be 16 years or older and a license is required to ride E-mottos. Violations could result in delay or prevention of receiving a vehicle drivers license. Stricter enforcement is underway across Orange County.

OCTA's Wave Fare Payment system presents strong results, with approximately 61% of OC Bus boardings now using Wave cards or contactless payment options as OCTA advances efforts to modernize fare collection and improve the transit experience for riders.

I support freeing up crucial dollars for residents and allowing riders the ability to pay on their own terms. Orange County families deserve more financial flexibility and protections from overcharging. OCTA’s new WAVE system provides both, while streamlining boarding OC Buses and OC Streetcars.
