Uh how did Lone Star make it when it hasn't reopened yet?
Karen Morris August 31, 2012 at 12:56 am
Yay! GO BARONS!

People ate at Lonestar when it was open, and they know it's coming back.

THAT IS FUNNY! Lone Star.... not even open and it took out Sizzler. But personaly I don't consider Sizzler a steak house it is a salad bar. THey used to have good staeaks back in what the 70's besides is there even a place you can buy a steak in this town?

I've gotta say Farmer Brothers is a hit with their reasonable prices, great service and excellent dishes. I'm surprised they weren't mentioned. I also make use of their coupons that appear in my mail box whenever possible. Breakfast burrito is excellent.

Flour Fusion is a good breakfast place with great coffee!
It should be number 1 on the 'Best Coffee Shop' list.

Thanks for the link on Temecula guitarist murder suspects' sketches released

Somewhere deep in the General Plan Guidelines are references to how often both the plans and theRead More various studies that support the General Plan EIR should be updated. If you think about the rapid growth Riverside County has experienced over the last couple of decades, it is just plain good common sense to require these updates if the document is to remain serviceable. 2003 versions are now 10 years old, and many of the supporting studies in the EIR are even older. It's bad enough when a city or county is forced to work with an old plan, but it is far worse not to have adopted any plan at all. It's much like getting into the car without any sense of direction - let alone a map or GPS.

Doesn't this sound like a very long, unpaid for advertisement for goods and services for sale? AlsoRead More here we are in the tail end of June, so most homeowners have already checked things out and had the equipment tuned up for the high summer heat.

Maybe when the week is over they can give you an answer... "There will be more deputies onRead More patrol in Lake Elsinore during the week of June 17-23, a sheriff’s sergeant is reporting. The beefed up patrols come as Lake Elsinore readies for increased summertime traffic. “As part of the city of Lake Elsinore's commitment to public safety the Lake Elsinore Police Department will be deploying additional units to enforce distracted driving, seatbelt violators, drinking and driving, as well as other traffic laws, the week of June 17-23,” according to a news release from Sgt. Peter Giannakakos, who serves out of the Lake Elsinore Sheriff’s Station."

With all of the auto theft and home break-ins how could anyone be against added police presence. IRead More live in Wildomar and would welcome any extra patrols.
orangecountybred June 20, 2013 at 05:05 am
Seeing as the cops in elsinore are corrupt I dnt see any justice being made so more nor less doesntRead More matter as long as some cops r dirty the streets will remain free game

EVMWD rates are a crime! Take those darn pensions away and lower our rates. Over paid slackers!

Bobby Swann and John Lloyd are fantastic people. AND they are assets to the city. I'm glad and proudRead More to associate with them. --Kevin, Wildomar citizen

Typical ler....you really know how to communicate effectively.

The city is so excited they forgot to put this event on the cities website.
Rose Vicente June 15, 2013 at 09:16 am
Why not a parade in the streets?
Martha L. Bridges June 15, 2013 at 07:20 pm
Rose, we've had five years of having celebrations large and small with all the trappings ofRead More city-hood that Bridgette Moore could conjure up - right down to spending money the city didn't have to purchase monogrammed M&M. I suggest it's time to ring the bell and then get back to the real work of running the city. That would include doing the essential foundational work that has been skipped over in favor of window dressing and nonsense for the first five years.

not to mention the day before someone hit a parked car on the same street, don't worry police showedRead More a good 50 min later, Wildomar needs a discount from the sheriffs dept for sure

Thanks Toni. I was just going to leave Tammi a comment about it.

That place is weird. Cult like almost in their practices. The holding out the last note of everyRead More worship song to "invoke the spirit" is just totally unnecessary. I was glad to leave.

TY for catching this!!!
Jeff Greene June 8, 2013 at 09:57 am
To be clear, Supervisor Jeffries is not yet in support of charging for parking at the hospital, butRead More supported Supervisor Stone's request to have it evaluated, and is willing to consider it based on the results. In his quotes that day he mentioned that when Kaiser started charging for their new structure, they almost immediately changed their mind because the response was so negative. Supervisor Jeffries' main interest in supporting a study of all the county's parking facilities was to determine whether we could save money on the parking structures we already charge for by going to an automated system, rather than staffing it full time with multiple county employees. We have been told that we are actually losing money on the fees we collect for parking, and if that is true, we want to either switch to a cheaper collection system or eliminate the fees entirely.
Chris Twining June 13, 2013 at 12:55 am
Let's hope not. Charging for parking, especially at a hospital, is disgusting to say the least. IRead More got an idea. Let's see if just one elected official can so SOMETHING!!! other than sitting around trying to figure out more and more ways to separate us from our money. Do you have a clue as to what's going on around you? Do you get out of bed in the morning? turn on the TV? go outside? You are 10 years too late. That kind of thing from elected politicians is over. Stop trying to raise money. There are so many things out there you could be doing to make a good name for yourself, and 99% of those things involve cutting spending. Get to the bottom of some things. Imagine how people would react to that. They would swarm at your feet and hold you in high regard. And if you ever find yourself in the hospital, I will gladly come visit you as long as I dont have to pay to park.
