The Victor Valley consist of 5 incorporated towns and has 15 unincorporated communities in the San
Bernardino County. Started by a Mr Victor a rail road engineer in the 1800s. As part of the Inland Empire, the Victor Valley is the largest populated area between the City of San
Bernardino and Las Vegas. Centrally located for recreational activities like Skiing, Water Skiing, fishing, hiking, gambling,
air balloons, ultra-light planes and the lists goes on and on.
The future Victor Valley job growth will come from the Southern California Logistics Airport known as SCLA. SCLA is
designated as air cargo facility and will consist of over 8,500 acres of business complexes which will integrate manufacturing, industrial and
office facilities. SCLA will drive the future Victor Valley economy in the Victor Valley for years to come...
July 28, 2006, attended a meeting presented by the Victorville Planning Department.
Victorville is in the process of rezoning an area known as the "Northern Triangle". This area located off I-15 is now zoned
mostly for heavy industrial use. Victorville wants to rezone this area to specific plan.
Why rezone? One of the purposes of the planning department is to find the best use for vacant land. Since
CALTRANS is planning for alternate Highway 18, known as the "High Desert Corridor" to run through this area, Victorville
has decided that commercial and residential may the best use. Changing the zoning to specific plan would give the Victorville planning
department flexibility to develop this area.
Two years ago no one had any interest in the "Northern Triangle" because they consider this area
too far North. Since the process to work on alternate highway 18 has begun, everyone is starting to look into this area. For those
who are not familiar with alternate highway 18, This highway will replace the existing highway 18. The new alternate highway 18
will connect from Lucerne Valley through Apple Valley, crossing I-15 through Victorville crossing the SCLA Airport (old George
Airforce Base) and then to the city of Palmdale. So I-15 and I-18 will be a major crossroads at Victorville's "Northern Triangle".
As a major crossroad, several commercial developers and homebuilders now want to develop in this area. Since there
is such a high interest, Victorville wants to take advantage of these developers and plans to have the rezoning completed within two years.
Remember the stories about a bullet train from Orange County to Las Vegas. A company called Highland Energy
has started meetings to discuss a High Speed Train called the Desertxpress. Their goal is to have the train operating from Victorville
to Las Vegas by 2012. Sounds like another fish story, but listen to this. This company has a record for success. They build the first
power plant, all natural gas, in California since the power crisis and had it operational in three years. This Victorville power plant
has won many awards from the power industry for the most environment safe power source. They are working on a second power plant plan
also to be located in Victorville.
How does the high-speed train help Victorville? Highland Energy is planning to place an entertainment center in
the "Northern Triangle". This center will not only be the Victorville train station but a complete center for visitors and
local residence. It will serve as a commercial hub for Nevada people coming to Southern California and for Southern California people who
want a fast enjoyable ride to Las Vegas. People can come, play and travel to Las Vegas in one hour. A second spur is being discussed to
connect to the City of Palmdale which would connect Victorville to the Los Angeles Metrolink. This project will be privately funded using
federal land easements to meet the 2012 goal.
Another major developer Prologis wants to bring corporate facilities to the "Northern Triangle". This
company has more than 2,400 facilities owned, managed and under development in 81 markets throughout North America, Europe and Asia. And
just across I-15, Apple Valley had four major housing developments in the process to be approved. With all of this interest in Victorville's
"Northern Triangle", investors should consider this a hot area.
