Moreno Valley prides itself on being a safe, well-maintained community where we can live, do business, or raise a family. Recent state and national changes mean our City must continue to work to maintain our financial stability and community quality of life, no matter what happens with state and federal policies that potentially affect the funding Moreno Valley and other California cities receive.

In past years, the City conducted a series of community surveys which asked the public about a range of issues, including satisfaction with some of the services we provide and issues of concern to the public. Some of the priorities identified by your neighbors in that survey included:

  • Maintaining 911 emergency response times/services
  • Maintaining robbery and burglary suppression programs
  • Protecting local funds from State or regional money grabs
  • Maintaining safe and clean public areas
  • Repairing potholes, local streets, and roads
  • Maintaining the number of sworn police officers on the streets and fire engines in service
  • Improving fire protection services
  • Enhancing recreation and youth programs and facilities

The City would like to hear more from the public as we continue this year’s budget planning process. We are committed to continuing to reflect your priorities in our budget decision-making so our local quality of life is maintained, no matter what happens nationally, regionally or with the economy.
