City Council will consider a 45-day moratorium on new tobacco retail permits following widespread illegal drug sales at smoke shops and award a $19.7 million contract to renovate the nearly century-old Cesar Chavez Community Center.
This week’s agendas include a Council vote on a 45-day smoke shop moratorium and a $19.7M Chavez Center renovation, plus earthquake prep tips and a water update.
From securing furniture to retrofitting homes and weighing insurance, here’s how Riversiders can prepare for the next big quake—plus an update on California’s latest water bill.

A series was launched celebrating local craft brewers and businesses, fostering community and collaboration.
Earlier this summer, I launched "Crafty Conversations," a community outreach series dedicated to celebrating and connecting with innovative businesses that are enriching our city's business landscape. This initiative is designed to foster collaboration and build a thriving business community by highlighting the stories and insights of our local entrepreneurs, specifically local craft brewers.
So far, I have had the privilege of engaging in interactive discussions with the owners of Packinghouse Brewing Company and Route 30 Brewing. These crafty conversations have revealed fresh ideas and innovative solutions to local business challenges. Councilmember Robillard and Councilmember Falcone joined me in facilitating these conversations within their respective ward. We delved into the owners' entrepreneurial journey, how they honed their craft, the obstacles they have overcome, and how they set themselves apart in the industry. I am eager to continue these insightful conversations with more business owners throughout the city!
