Lakeland Village is unincorporated, so Riverside County Ordinance 754 sets the rule: any physical connection to the storm drain system not permitted by the County or the Flood Control District is an illicit connection, though footing and foundation drains sit on its exempt list.

French Drain Installation questions from Lakeland Village customers

Where can a French drain legally discharge in Lakeland Village?
Lakeland Village is unincorporated, so Riverside County Ordinance 754 applies. It defines the storm drain system to include roads with drainage systems, streets, curbs, gutters, catch basins, channels and ditches, and defines an illicit connection as any physical connection to that system not permitted by Riverside County, the Flood Control District, or another appropriate public agency. Uncontaminated foundation and footing drain water is on its exempt list.
My side of Lakeland Village is on septic. Where can the drain line go?
Sewer service in the Lakeland Village sphere is absent south of Akley Street and west of Blackwell Boulevard, where individual septic systems serve properties. Riverside County's 2024 onsite wastewater program sets minimum horizontal setbacks of 15 feet from drainage courses for tanks, leach lines, leach beds and seepage pits, 5 feet from a property line adjoining private property, and 8 feet from a building for leach lines.
Do I need a permit to run a drain out to the road here?
Riverside County Ordinance 499 requires a permit from the County Transportation Director before anyone constructs, installs or maintains an improvement, structure or encroachment in, on, over or under a County highway or its right of way. The County's road standard drawings include No. 310, Private Drain Through Curb, No. 309, Under Sidewalk Drain Cast in Place, and No. 308, Curb Outlet Drain.
Does being outside Lake Elsinore city limits change who I deal with?
The community is unincorporated Riverside County, not the City of Lake Elsinore. County Planning's Lakeland Village Community Plan covers roughly 2,626 acres in a policy area along Grand Avenue between State Route 74 and Corydon Road. Ordinance 754 names Riverside County and the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District among the agencies whose permission a storm drain connection requires.
