What's Needed In Your Community? RivCo Residents Can Weigh In

RIVERSIDE COUNTY, CA — The County of Riverside has launched a survey in an effort to get feedback from residents living in unincorporated areas about the services and programs that are most in need.

The survey results will focus on underserved areas to prioritize projects and services for future budget cycles, starting with the next fiscal year budget that begins on July 1.

The survey, available in English and Spanish, will be available online until March 31 at https://rivco.org/community/unincorporated-communities-initiative.

“Some of our most underserved communities are those areas that fall within the jurisdiction of the county for their most basic of services,” said Supervisor Kevin Jeffries, First District. “We have an opportunity to make changes that can greatly impact the daily lives of our residents. It’s our duty to hear from them about what the greatest needs truly are and prioritize those projects for funding.”

An unincorporated area is a geographic community that is not within the jurisdictional boundaries of a city, and as a result, is governed at the county level.

The types of services and needs that will be prioritized will be those that improve quality of life for residents and could range from improved utilities and roads to social services and public protection.
