Menifee is a city in Riverside County, California, United States, and is part of the Inland Empire.[7] Named after a local miner, Luther Menifee Wilson, it was settled in the 19th century, and incorporated as a city in 2008. Since then, Menifee has become one of the fastest growing cities in California and the United States.[8][9]

The city is centrally located in Southern California in the Menifee Valley. It is almost 15 miles (24 km) north of Temecula and just north of Murrieta. Menifee is roughly 46 square miles (100 km2) in size and has an elevation of 1,424 feet (434 m). The incorporated City of Menifee includes the communities of Sun City, Quail Valley, and Romoland.

History

[edit]
Luther Menifee Wilson

The area are the traditional lands of the Luiseño people, specifically the Pechanga band. In the 18th century, the area fell under Spanish rule and was ceded by Mexico to the United States in 1848 as a result of the Mexican–American War.

Farming, which began in the mid-19th century, was concentrated in the Menifee area. Mining began in the early 1880s with the discovery of a significant quartz lode by miner Luther Menifee Wilson, from whom Menifee derived its name.[10][11] Wilson discovered a gold-bearing quartz ledge near present day Holland and Murrieta roads in 1883, and filed a claim with the San Diego County Recorder’s office for this new “Menifee” mine. At the time, the area was referred to as the Menifee Valley.[12]

Early development of the Menifee area began with Sun City in the early 1960s, conceptualized as an active retirement community by Del Webb, a building contractor from Phoenix, Arizona. Webb also developed Sun City, Arizona, under the same concept. Sun City is located in the northwestern part of Menifee and features a mix of residential and commercial activity.

The Menifee area later grew during the late 1980s and early 1990s as a master-planned community. However, a lack of resources such as industry-oriented occupations and high-density retail and commercial businesses caused many residents to drive to cities such as Temecula or Murrieta to shop, dine, or work. In recent years, however, there has been substantial growth in Menifee, attracting many new residents from all areas of Southern California such as San Diego, Orange County and Los Angeles, as well as other parts of the Inland Empire.

On June 3, 2008, the residents of the communities encompassing the Menifee area voted to incorporate together to form Riverside County's 26th city. The City of Menifee was officially established on October 1, 2008.[13]

Geography

[edit]

The city of Menifee is bordered on the north, west, south and east by the cities of Perris, Canyon Lake, Lake Elsinore, Wildomar, Murrieta, and the community of Winchester. The city center of Menifee lies at the intersection of Newport Road and Interstate 215.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city covers an area of 46.6 square miles (120.7 km2), 99.70% of it land, and 0.30% of it water.

The Menifee Hills are a ridge approximately 2 miles long and 1.5 miles wide, with a high point of 2,141 ft.[14] Bell Mountain is a 1,848 ft mountain located in Menifee.

City government

[edit]

On June 3, 2008, voters elected to incorporate Menifee as a general law city. The new City of Menifee was officially established on October 1, 2008, and is the 26th city located within Riverside County. It was first governed by a five-member city council, with Wallace Edgerton as the mayor.[34] Edgerton was re-appointed mayor for a second term in 2009,[35] and for a third term in 2010.[36]

In 2011, John Denver was appointed mayor by city council, after the city's people requested a change in leadership at city council meetings.[37]

In November 2012, Scott Mann was elected mayor;[38] he was re-elected in November 2014.[39]

In 2016, Neil Winter was elected mayor, defeating Mann, who unsuccessfully ran for a third term.[40] Mann's FPPC violation of using campaign funding for personal funding was believed to have helped Winter to win the election.[41] Mann resigned office early after being formally censured by city council, and Greg August served as acting mayor for 20 days until Winter was sworn in.[42] During the 2016 election, voters also approved a measure to increase mayoral terms from two to four years.[43]

On May 19, 2018, Mayor Winter unexpectedly died in office, due to an apparent heart attack.[44] Councilwoman Lesa Sobek took up mayoral responsibilities as mayor pro tempore following Winter's death.[45] After 60 days, Bill Zimmerman was elected Mayor of Menifee in a 3-1 decision by the city council, on July 18, 2018.[46] In November 2020, Zimmerman was re-elected to serve a four-year term as Mayor.[47] His term expires in December 2024.[48]
