Responsible Planning

Rancho Mission Viejo's guiding principle on responsible planning originates from the wisdom of Marguerite ''Daisy'' O'Neill of the O'Neill/Moiso/Avery Family, ''Take care of the land and the land will take care of you." Over the past 50 years, this credo has helped produce some of Southern California's most recognized, timeless and loved communities.
