Top issues during term (20)
Mead Valley Industrial Core Overlay (GPA250010)
Warehouse development brings infrastructure money and community benefits like the Hillwood-funded 13-acre park, but residents say the costs — road damage, health impacts — fall on them.
Election integrity and Registrar of Voters transparency
A hand recount could cost county election funds; no estimate was given.
Data center moratorium/ban in unincorporated Riverside County
No county money is at stake yet, but data centers could strain water and power infrastructure if approved.
Election Integrity and Voter Roll Concerns
None directly stated.
Solar glare management near March Air Reserve Base runways
Anti-reflective coatings and tracking panels add cost for solar developers, though tracking panels can improve efficiency.
Stephens' Kangaroo Rat Mitigation Fee Increase
Program could reduce project costs by avoiding delays and scarce-credit premiums, though acquisition spending would come first.
public meetings
No direct costs here, but knowing what's happening helps keep local tax dollars in check.
County Transparency and Public Records Practices
2026 Amendment to March ARB/IP Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan
The plan update itself won't raise anyone's property taxes, staff confirmed, though about ten Moreno Valley parcels face new development limits.
Sage area rezoning proposal (GPA 240053)
November 2026 ballot measures
Keeps the existing half-cent sales tax in place — no new taxes, but about $280 million a year continues flowing to transportation.

$602,589 total, already covered in the approved capital budget — no new taxes or fares.
Children's recreational activity center in Temescal Canyon area
SR-79 Realignment renamed San Jacinto Valley Expressway
Minimal direct cost; staff time for another outreach round.
Regional transportation funding through TUMF
Up to $5,361,517 for Wildomar and up to $9,200,000 for the County roundabout in TUMF reimbursements.
Lakeview/Nuevo two-lot land split
