Setting The PACE For A Better Pine Hills Together, We Can Make A Difference! Preserving a Clean, Safe & Prosperous Community ![]() Dear Neighbors and Friends, I hope this message finds you well and in high spirits. I wanted to follow up on my previous newsletter, where I mentioned our efforts to represent YOU, as conversations continue to revolve around the Future Development of the Pine Hills Community. I intend to keep you informed about the development, and Orange County has provided the PHCC with an active link to the interactive website that shares the Pine Hills Visioning effort: Pine Hills’ Future Vision | Engage Orange County. You can leave comments, take a survey, and review the renders all on this site. If you have any questions, concerns, or other comments that you’d like us to bring to the attention of the County/PHNID Team on your behalf, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly at Joneil@pinehills.info. Lastly, I want to share a notice about our current activities during the Pine Hills Neighborhood Improvement District (PHNID) Small Business Week, where these proposed concepts were presented. I am also sharing again a solicitation for those interested in potentially filling the vacant seats (2) that represent the Pine Hills Community Council on the PHNID Advisory Council. The potential to serve in this capacity ensures that the PHCC and the community have a continued voice in the development of the PHNID Business Corridor and Orange County. Please let me know if you’re interested so we can discuss further. The information is provided below in this email.
