Growth in Menifee

I went to a lunch sponsered by the Chamber a couple of weeks ago where Jeff Stone was the speaker. He gave out alot of good information. He is pushing to get an emergency lane put in on the 215 freeway to ease the congestion. Although, there is lots of red tape with the Transportaion department he has to break through. He talked about the Sheriff Dept. and how we have more police patrolling the area. I have noticed an increase of Sheriff cars on the roads.
We are supposed to be getting a large sports park put in on Newport Road, East of Bradley.
This Town needs more parks, but not little neighborhood parks. We need large sports complexes to house Football, Soccer, Baseball, Softball and Basketball Leagues. Jeff Stone mentioned putting lights at all the Schools, I don't think he realizes that the schools aren't that easy to work with. The Leagues have to pay for using these facilities,they have to be done by a certain time so the Janitor can lock up, etc...
The baseball and softball leagues would like to utilize the snack bar at Wheatfield Park, we can't do it, somehow the Women's Club of Menifee is the sole group that can run a snack bar there. How is this possible? They don't own Valley Wide. It is a battle we at the Menifee Valley Little League has been battling for years.
We should be getting large anchor stores and around 15+ restaurants at the Haun and Newport Road intersections.
Off of Ethanac Road in Sun City, a large shopping complex, with Home Depot as an anchor store is coming.
