Dream Extreme

Dream Extreme 2040 is the City’s FIRST long-term strategic plan to assist the City in its pursuit of achieving its vision. The plan is a living document that will be updated regularly and serve as the framework to guide all decision-making over the next 20 years by identifying key Anchors, Aspirations, and Strategies.

Our Vision is the City of Lake Elsinore will be the ultimate destination where all can live, work, play, build futures, and fulfill dreams.

The Anchors are the City of Lake Elsinore’s unique community assets and opportunities: The Lake, Downtown, and Action and Adventure.

• The Lake: Lake Elsinore is a vital community asset. Protecting, enhancing, and celebrating the Lake is critical to Lake Elsinore’s City and community health.

• Downtown: Enhancing and creating the highest quality downtown experience will serve to create a strong sense of place that will shape the City’s identity as a place where residents and visitors can live, work, and play.

• Action and Adventure: Lake Elsinore’s programs, facilities, and natural environment will define the City as a destination for action and adventure for both visitors and residents.

Our Aspirations are broad, long-term goals that encapsulate what we hope to achieve in Lake Elsinore’s future. The City has identified 4 key aspirations to work towards.
