Joan Irvine Smith Honored as IRWD Partner
In recognition of the Irvine Ranch Water District 50th anniverary, it was fitting that the first person to be honored as a community partner was Joan Irvine Smith.
Mrs. Smith is the great-granddaughter of James Irvine who assembled about 120,000 acres to form the Irvine Ranch in what is now known as central Orange County. The land that once was the Irvine Ranch is now largely contained within Irvine Ranch Water District's service area.
