Mission Viejo voters will decide in the upcoming November election the fates of all five members of the city council, following a unanimous vote by councilors on July 12.
This comes after Orange County Superior Court Judge Walter Schwarm on June 28 ruled in favor of Michael Schlesinger, a Mission Viejo resident who sued the city and argued that councilors Trish Kelley and Brian Goodell—who had their terms extended when the council switched to district elections—should also appear on the ballot.
