Riverside o cials, local educators to explore job growth through Learning Institute for Flight Technology

By Joe Taglieri joet@beaconmedianews.com

The city of Riverside is partnering with two local school districts and several local colleges to explore ways of creating more jobs and long-term growth in the aviation, aerospace and related technology businesses via the Learning Institute for Flight Technology, officials said last week.

The collaborative effort includes the city, Riverside Unified School District, Alvord Unified School District, Riverside City College, California Baptist University and UC Riverside. According to the city, LIFT will allow the organizations to work together to evaluate how existing school curriculum, industry needs and regional assets could be improved over time to generate more career awareness, improve skills development and build a more skilled workforce.

Through LIFT, the partner agencies will explore how curriculum, training and workforce pipelines can be intentionally coordinated to ensure Riverside residents are prepared for

emerging career opportunities in high-demand industries, according to officials from Riverside City College.

“This will ensure Riverside remains proactive, not reactive, about aerospace and advanced manufacturing jobs,” City Councilman Steven Robillard, who proposed the idea, said in a statement. “This is an opportunity to explore partnerships and have a

dialogue about what we can bring to our city.”

Riverside City College Interim President Eric Bishop said, “We are excited to be working with each other and with industry to keep talent in the Inland Empire. This partnership reflects our shared commitment to creating clear, accessible pathways that

connect education to meaningful careers and economic mobility.”

The organizations recently put in writing via a memorandum of understanding their intention to combine shared assets to study the role of technology within aviation, aerospace, and related fields. Supporters hope the

TheBoardofSupervisors on Tuesday approved the Riverside County Park and Open Space District's master agreement to retain eight professional grant writing firms to submit requests seeking state and federal funds that will benefit the agency.

Varner Road in Thousand Palms designated as priority corridor in road safety initiative

The2.3-mileVarner Road was designated as a priority corridor Tuesday as part of a road safety initiative to reduce collisions and fatalities in Thousand Palms.

Caltrans and other state and local leaders gathered Tuesday at Sunline Transit Agency, 72420 Varner Road, to designate the road as a State Priority Safety Corridor.

The Varner Road corridor, which spans from north of Bob Hope Drive to south of Monterey Avenue, was chosen from five years of crash data from 2019 through 2023, and was identified in partnership with UC Berkeley SafeTrec using a "High Injury Network" methodology.

"The best road safety initiative is prevention, and the State Priority Safety Corridor initiative will save lives," California Transportation Secretary Toks Omishakin said in a statement. "This data-driven collaboration with state and local government partners will guide us towards the best use of transportation that align with community safety needs."

Officials said the stretch of

Analyzed data from all California public roads -state highways, city streets and county roads -- found 3,612 deaths and 14,392 serious injuries in 2023 alone.

"This project represents exactly how we reduce severe and fatal crashes by working together and focusing our efforts where the data shows lives are at risk," CHP Commissioner Sean Duryee said.

In October 2025, Omishakin and California Health and

Kim Johnson signed the Policy on Road Safety, which sets a goal to cut deadly and serious injury crashes by 30% by 2035.

The initiative's comprehensive approach combines infrastructure, engagement and policy innovation, including:

-- high-visibility markings, upgraded signal timing and redesigned intersections to reduce conflict points and improve pedestrian safety;

-- infrastructure to support safe walking, biking and transit access for all users;

-- education and enforcement through a social media

-- law enforcement partnerships, and -- tools such as automated speed safety cameras to promote safe driving speeds.

Leading indicators such as vehicle speeds, conflict points and telematics data will help identify risks early and help guide adjustments.

"This proactive effort targets the root causes of serious crashes and makes long-term, tangible investments that support our goal to deliver proven enhancements designed to save lives and create safer roadways for everyone," Caltrans Director El-Tawansy said.

Bad Bunny wins album of the year

By City News Service

BadBunnymade GrammyAwards history Sunday night, capturing the evening's top prize of Album of the Year for "Debí Tirar Más Fotos" — the first-ever best album Grammy winner sung entirely in Spanish.

The Puerto Rican-born singer, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, began his acceptance speech in Spanish, saying what translated to "Puerto Rico, believe me when I tell you that we are much bigger than 100 by 35" — a reference to the island's size — "and there is nothing we can't achieve."

Switching to English, he went on to say, "I want to dedicate this award to all the people who had to leave their homeland to follow their dreams."

It was one of numerous immigration-related references made by various artists Sunday night during the televised ceremonies from the Crypto.com Arena, where the major awards on "Music's Biggest Night" were handed out.

Earlier, while accepting the Grammy for best música urbana album, Bad Bunny said in English, "Before I say thanks to God, I'm going to say ICE out. We're not savage, we're not animals, we're not aliens. We are humans and we are Americans."

Meanwhile, in other major awards at Sunday's 68th annual Grammys, Billie Eilish won Song of the Year for "Wildflower," written with her brother, Finneas O'Connell; and Compton-born rapper Kendrick Lamar, with SZA, captured Record of the Year — which recognizes the artist — for "Luther."

"No one is illegal on stolen land," Eilish said in accepting her award. "(Expletive) ICE is all I want to say."

Lamar also took Rap Album of the Year for "GNX."

Combined with his Album of the Year award, he now has 27 career Grammys — breaking Jay-Z's previous mark of 25 for most Grammys by a rapper.

Pop Vocal Album of the Year went to Lady Gaga for "Mayhem," while the Grammy for Pop Solo Perfor-

mance went to Lola Young for "Messy."

The best new artist Grammy went to Olivia Dean. Meanwhile, Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande's duet "Defying Gravity" from the film "Wicked" won for best pop duo/group performance, beating out "Golden" (from "KPop Demon Hunters") by Huntr/x.

The eligibility period for this year's Grammy nominations was Aug. 31, 2024 to Aug. 30, 2025. That timeline eliminated Taylor Swift's hit release "The Life of a Showgirl" from consideration — but it will be eligible for the 2027 Grammys.

Earlier Sunday, the Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony took place at the Peacock Theater, where the bulk of the day's 95 awards were be presented.

The main event of "Music's Biggest Night" was hosted for the sixth and last time by comedian Trevor Noah.

Sunday also marked the start of a historic week for Bad Bunny, who's also set to headline the halftime show at next Sunday's Super Bowl.

Unique Valentine’s Day Ideas to Spark Romance and Connection Singles & Social Events

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, couples everywhere are looking for meaningful ways to celebrate their relationship. While classic gifts like chocolates and roses never go out of style, the true magic of the holiday comes from spending quality time together. Whether you’re a pair of students celebrating your very first Valentine’s Day or partners marking decades of love, thoughtful experiences can make the day truly unforgettable. For couples who appreciate the arts, an evening at a play, live concert, or even a cozy movie night can add a touch of romance and glamour. If sentimentality

is more your style, consider recreating a cherished memory — revisiting your first date location or reimagining a favorite shared moment with a creative twist.

Adventurous duos might enjoy stepping outside their comfort zone with a dance lesson, whether it’s learning the cha-cha, samba, or elegant ballroom moves together. If a slower pace sounds more appealing, working on a puzzle side by side can be a calm, intimate way to connect and unwind.

Food lovers can turn dinner into an experience by planning a progressive meal, enjoying appetizers,

entrées, and dessert at different restaurants, or opting for a cozy staycation close to home. Outdoor enthusiasts might prefer a scenic hike, a stroll through nature, or a fun-filled outing at a local skating rink.

For couples seeking a deeper connection, volunteering together for a cause you both care about can be a rewarding way to give back while strengthening your bond. No matter how you choose to celebrate, Valentine’s Day is ultimately about sharing moments that bring you closer and create memories you’ll cherish long after the day has passed.

Valentine’s Day Ideas to Celebrate Friendship and Fun

Valentine’s Day isn’t just for couples— it’s also the perfect excuse to celebrate the incredible friendships that add joy, laughter, and support to our lives. Galentine’s Day, typically observed on February 13, is all about honoring those bonds and creating meaningful memories with friends. Whether you’re planning a low-key get-together or a full day of festivities, there are plenty of ways to make it special.

For a relaxed and cozy celebration, consider hosting a themed brunch or

dinner party. Think heart-shaped waffles, build-your-own charcuterie boards, or a potluck where everyone brings a favorite dish. Add a playful touch with costumes, candles, or a curated playlist to set the mood.

Feeling creative? Try a DIY night, such as candle making, flower arranging, or a paint-and-sip evening at home. These hands-on activities encourage conversation and leave everyone with a keepsake to remember the day. If you prefer getting out of the house, booking

a group workshop or craft class can be a fun change of pace.

For friends who love to unwind, a selfcare night is always a hit. Face masks, mini manicures, and mocktails or champagne can turn an ordinary evening into a mini spa experience. On the more adventurous side, consider planning a group fitness class, dance lesson, or even a friendly bowling or trivia night to spark laughter and lighthearted competition. Food-focused outings are another Galentine’s favorite. Schedule a dessert

crawl, coffee-hopping afternoon, or reservations at a favorite restaurant you’ve been meaning to try together. For something more meaningful, volunteering as a group or writing heartfelt notes of appreciation to one another can be a powerful way to celebrate friendship.

No matter how you choose to celebrate, Galentine’s Day is about connection, support, and shared joy—because great friendships deserve to be celebrated just as much as romance.

OPINION

Monrovia Old Town report: Roll credits

By Shawn Spencer shawn@girlfridaysolutions.net

Here’s a plot twist no one saw coming. I am deeply saddened to announce that LOOK Cinema has permanently closed in Old Town. The Texas based company has confirmed that their Glendale location will remain open, but Monrovia, Downey and Redlands locations all abruptly closed over the weekend. While U-Hauls were filled with furniture and equipment, the Company said they are busy trying to provide support and resources to the unknown number of employees that are suddenly out of a job.

The theatre is a large space to fill. Sure, it could house shared office space or a suite of offices, but is that what we want? Personally, I dread going to the mall. I sure as heck don’t want to go there to watch a movie. Can another company swoop in and save the day? We need a sequel! Sadly, the glitz and glam of Hollywood is fading. And like so many that were devastated by the COVID 19 pandemic, the movie industry appears to have a bad case of long COVID. Like so many brick and mortar stores that have permanently shuttered in the last year for reasons such as bankruptcy, shifting consumer behavior, the economy, Amazon, etc., how can the movie industry survive? Over 15,000 businesses closed in 2025: RiteAid, Foot Locker, Forever 21, Party City, Joann Fabrics, to name a few. That number does not include the small mom and pop stores that

are the heartbeat of many neighborhoods. How can a movie theatre be expected to not just survive, but thrive when the same movies can be purchased on Amazon Prime for a mere $19.99?

This brings out the worry in many community members. We are already reeling from the pending closure of Gene’s. Now people are noticing empty buildings, and a sense of worry is starting to set in. Small town businesses often have a seasonal ebb and flow of traffic and revenue. It takes focus, agility and a keen business to succeed in such endeavors. But if you haven’t noticed, Monrovia is in a growth phase. These apartment buildings that are going up lickity-split are not

empty. While many are not a fan of these developments, the people that live in them need to eat. They need to shop. They need to see a darn movie and have a Gene’s pastrami dip! Where the people are, the businesses will come. I am not worried about Monrovia. Change may be upon us, and we all know change is hard. But sometimes change is necessary. What’s the saying? Change is hard at first, messy in the middle and gorgeous in the end.

Please continue to support the local businesses that support you, feed you, clothe you and make your life better. I know that they value and appreciate your patronage more than big business does.

Arlo is a calm, loving pup with a soft heart and an easygoing spirit. He may get a little stressed in new situations (car rides and rainy days aren’t his favorite!), but he handles it all with quiet patience and a gentle outlook. Once he settles in, Arlo loves to relax, explore, and soak up the peaceful moments. In his foster home, Arlo is a total sweetheart — respectful, wellmannered, and happy to simply be near his people. He enjoys sniffing around new spaces, naps on soft carpets, and meeting new friends with a calm, steady confidence. He’s also a great student: he’s started practicing crate time, learning loose-leash walking, and adjusting beautifully to new routines. Arlo is the kind of dog who just wants to feel safe, warm, and loved. If you’re looking for a mellow, affectionate companion who will quietly brighten your days, Arlo might be the perfect match. And, he is available for a 10-day adoption trial!

Meet Piloncillo! This handsome guy is a joy to have by your side. Although he came to Pasadena Humane as a stray, this one-year-old pit bull has shown nothing but his sweet and adventurous side. He’s great in the car, walks nicely on a leash, knows his “sit” command, and loves a good hike! When Piloncillo is out and about, you can expect a prancy walk, lots of sniffing, and the occasional adorable play bow to passing dogs. Piloncillo is a curious pup who’s still figuring out the world — sometimes new things can make him pause — but he recovers quickly with calm reassurance. Once he’s comfy, he’s all about the pets, chest scratches, and hanging out right by your side (bench seat included!). If you’re looking for a fun, sweet, outdoorsy young dog who just needs a little confidence-building and a lot of love, Piloncillo might be your guy.

WHEREAS, Government Code Section 36937(b) expressly authorizes the City Council to adopt by a four-fifths vote an urgency ordinance for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health or safety.

NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EL MONTE, DOES HEREBY FIND, DETERMINE AND ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1. The facts set forth in the above recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference as if set forth in full.

SECTION 2. The “2026 Los Angeles County Building Code” means and refers to Los Angeles County Code Title 26 and the amendments to the 2025 California Building Code, as adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on November 25, 2025.

SECTION 3. The “2026 Los Angeles County Electrical Code” means and refers to Los Angeles County Code Title 27 and the amendments to the 2025 California Electrical Code, as adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on November 25, 2025.

SECTION 4 The “2026 Los Angeles County Residential Code” means and refers to Los Angeles County Code Title 30 and the amendments to the 2025 California Residential Code, as adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on November 25, 2025.

SECTION 5 The “2026 Los Angeles County Plumbing Code” means and refers to Los Angeles County Code Title 28 and the amendments to the 2025 California Plumbing Code, as adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on November 25, 2025.

SECTION 6 The “2026 Los Angeles County Mechanical Code” means and refers to Los Angeles County Code Title 29 and the amendments to the 2025 California Mechanical Code, as adopted by the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors on November 25, 2025.

SECTION 7. The “2026 Los Angeles County Green Building Standards Code” means and refers to Los Angeles County Code Title 31 and the amendments to the 2025 California Green Building Standards Code, as adopted by the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors on November 25, 2025.

SECTION 8 The “2026 Los Angeles County Existing Building Code” means and refers to Los Angeles County Code Title 33 and the amendments to the 2025 California Existing Building Code, as adopted by the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors on November 25, 2025.

SECTION 9 The purpose of this Urgency Ordinance is to amend the City of El Monte’s Municipal Code by adopting by reference, pursuant to California Government Code Sections 50022.2 through 50022.10, the 2026 Los Angeles County Building Code (Title 26), Electrical Code (Title 27), Plumbing Code (Title 28), Mechanical Code (Title 29), Residential Code (Title 30), Green Building Standards Code (Title 31), and Existing Building Code (Title 33), which adopted by reference and amended Parts 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 10, and 11 of Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations, the 2025 California Building Standards Code, and the findings supporting those amendments.

SECTION 10. Based on the recommendations and findings contained in this Urgency Ordinance and the accompanying staff report, the City Council hereby finds and declares that those certain amendments, with supported findings, adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors to the 2025 California Building Standards Code are reasonably necessary because of local climatic, geological, and topographical conditions existing within the City of El Monte, which include, but are not limited to the following:

1. The City is subject to relatively low amounts of precipitation, very low humidity levels, and extremely high tem-

peratures. These climatic conditions are conducive to the spread of drought conditions and fires.

2. The City is in close proximity to the San Andreas Fault and other earthquake faults within the County of Los Angeles. The height limits on accessory structures are reasonably necessary because such structures are not otherwise subject to a building permit and design review, and as a result they are not subjected review for compliance with the Code's seismic structural building standards.

The aforementioned geologic and climatic conditions have also contributed to the loss or damage of 262 homes in the Anaheim fire of 1982, 71 homes in the Baldwin Hills fire of 1985, 33 homes in the Porter Ranch fire of 1988, 162 homes in the Santa Barbara fire of 1990, 3300 homes in the Oakland fire of 1991, 2,232 homes in the Cedar fire of 2003, 1500 homes in the Southern California wildfires of 2007; and more recently, 1,311 structures were lost in the Dixie fire of 2024, over 9,000 home in the Eaton Fire and 6,837 homes in the Palisades Fire. These fires resulted in the tragic loss of lives along with enormous property losses.

SECTION 11. Declaration of Urgency. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 36937(b), this ordinance is hereby declared to be an urgency measure necessary for the immediate protection of the public health, safety and welfare. The City Council hereby finds that there is a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety and welfare regarding the City Buildings and Construction Code. Unless the City Council adopts an urgency ordinance, the 2025 California Building Standards Code will remain effective without the amendments necessary to preserve the public health, safety and welfare in the City of El Monte until such time as the amendment to the code can become legally effective through the standard process of ordinance adoption. This will result in a gap in the implementation of the more stringent City building codes necessary for the City of El Monte due to the City’s unique climatic, geological and topographical characteristics. The City Council hereby finds that such a gap in the implementation of said more stringent Code regulations will result in an immediate threat to the public health, safety and welfare of the City of El Monte. The City Council hereby finds, determines and declares that the immediate preservation of the public health, safety and welfare necessitates the enactment of this ordinance as an urgency ordinance and hereby shall become enforceable upon adoption.

SECTION 12. Based on the foregoing, and by a four-fifths vote, the City Council hereby introduces and adopts this Urgency Ordinance, adopting by reference the 2026 Los Angeles County Building Code (Title 26), Electrical Code (Title 27), Plumbing Code (Title 28), Mechanical Code (Title 29), Residential Code (Title 30), Green Building Standards Code (Title 31), and Existing Building Code (Title 33), which adopt by reference and amend the 2025 California Building Standards Code Parts 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 10, and 11 of Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations.

SECTION 13 To satisfy California Government Code Sections 50022.3 and 50022.4, the City Council also sets a follow-up public hearing for February 11, 2026 at 6:00 PM in the City Hall Council Chambers located at 11333 Valley Boulevard, El Monte, CA 91721, after which the City Council may amend, adopt, or reject this Urgency Ordinance.

Beaumont comes out on top in Riverside County's academic decathlon

By City News Service

Forthefirsttimein

the campus' history, Beaumont High School beat out all competitors to claim the championship title in the 43rd annual Riverside County Academic Decathlon, securing the team's place to represent the county in the statewide contest, officials said Monday.

The 10-part event that got underway in mid-January concluded Saturday with a "Super Quiz," after which the Beaumont High School Cougars walked away with the greatest number of points -- and top place in the competition.

"Every student who participated in this year's Riverside County Academic Decathlon is a powerful example of academic excellence and

focused collaboration," Superintendent of Schools Edwin Gomez said. "Congratulations to the Beaumont High School team as they prepare to proudly represent the county at the California Academic Decathlon."

The statewide contest is slated for March 19-22 in Santa Clara.

The theme of this year's county meet was "The Roaring Twenties," highlighting the many and varied movements spawned during the 1920s, including the suffragettes and Prohibition, as well as profiling historic milestones like the stock market craze, which collapsed into an unprecedented economic Depression across the nation.

"Critical thinking, public speaking, writing skills and

learning from history are among the many valuable skills strengthened within every student who participates in Academic Decathlon," Gomez said.

The decathlon routinely entails essays, speeches, videotaped interviews and related presentations over multiple days.

Teams from nine campuses entered this year's contest. Each team consisted of nine students with grade point averages ranging from low to honor roll.

The Super Quiz was the only event open to the public. It tested teams' ability to coordinate responses to themed questions.

effort will create awareness of emerging trends and potential applications, and how career readiness can be enhanced through focused education, training and workforce development.

One option includes examining how Riverside Airport can be leveraged as part of this effort, according to city officials. The Airport is the busiest FAA Federal Contract Tower airport in California and ranks 116th nationwide in operations that include emergency services, air ambulance flights and firefighting missions.

"The Airport is part of Southern California’s rich aviation legacy, providing training and general aviation opportunities for current and future aviators," the city statement said.

The airport is currently home to flight schools and FAA STEM programs, officials said.

“We are laying the foundation tonight,” Robillard said. “This positions Riverside to compete and keep our job pipelines local.”

The effort to enhance the skills and educational opportunities of local students

comes amid significant employment opportunities in several aviation fields, officials said. The Federal Aviation Administration projects a need for 8,900 new air traffic controllers and a 10% to 20% shortage of aviation technicians and mechanics by 2028. The FAA also anticipates a shortage of 24,000 pilots in 2026.

“Providing opportunities like this for our students is really what makes a difference in our lives,” Krista Fairley, assistant superintendent of educational services at Alvord Unified School District, said in a statement.

Riverside Community College District Chancellor Wolde-Ab Isaac highlighted the broader impact of the partnership on students and the region.

“Thiscollaboration reflects our collective responsibility to ensure that students and residents of Riverside have access to opportunities that lead to economic mobility and community prosperity,” Isaac said in a statement. “By aligning education with workforce needs, we are strengthening the region’s talent pipeline

and positioning Riverside for long-term growth.”

A city staff report noted the region's aviation history.

"Southern California’s aviation legacy is unparalleled in the United States," according to the report.

"Beginning in the early 20th century, the region transformed from agricultural groves into a global aerospace hub. Companies like Douglas Aircraft, Lockheed, and Hughes established manufacturing plants that produced iconic aircraft during World War II and the Cold War. These efforts not only helped secure Allied victory, but also propelled technological advancements in jet propulsion, stealth technology, and space exploration.

"The Inland Empire became a critical aviation corridor during the 20th century," the report continues. "Its vast open spaces and proximity to Los Angeles made it ideal for airfields and military installations. During World War II, the region hosted numerous training bases and aircraft production facilities, supporting troop deployments and logistics.

Last year's championship team was from

is scheduled for April 23-25 in Garden Grove.

March Air Reserve Base opened in 1918 and is one of the nation's oldest continuously operated military airfields.

"March Field evolved from a training ground for biplane pilots into a strategic hub for bomber operations during WWII and later a center for jet-age and Cold War missions," according to city officials.

Riverside Airport's roots go back to the early 1920s, when local aviation pioneer Roman Warren, known as the “Cowboy Aviator,” built a small landing field near the Santa Ana River. Warren used a 15-acre pasture

with a 900-foot runway for his surplus JN-4 aircraft, marking the start of the civil aviation era in Riverside.

"By the mid-20th century, the airport — then known as Riverside Arlington Airport — expanded its facilities," according to the report. "In 1956, Runway 9/27 was paved, enabling larger aircraft operations.

Soon after, Bonanza Air Lines began scheduled flights, later joined by Air West, offering service to destinations like Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Palm Springs. Through the 1970s, Golden West Airlines

operated Twin Otter flights to LAX, reinforcing Riverside’s role in regional connectivity."

Riverside Airport currently spans 525 acres with two asphalt runways and a helipad. The airport "serves as a general aviation hub and an aeronautical education center, hosting multiple flight schools and aviation programs," city staff reported. "A notable milestone occurred in 2013, when FedEx Express donated a Boeing 727-200F to California Baptist University, creating a hands-on laboratory for aviation science students."

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The Planning and Community Development Department is bringing forward Amendments to Title 17 (the Zoning Code) of the Pasadena Municipal Code (PMC) and the City’s South Fair Oaks Specific Plan. This includes changes to the following:

1) Zoning Code Section 17.35.030 (South Fair Oaks Specific Plan - Allowable Land Uses), to update the land use table to allow medical offices in all zoning districts.

2) South Fair Oaks Specific Plans, to update the land use table to allow medical offices in all zoning districts.

3) Zoning Code Section 17.40.180 (Walls and Fences), to update standards related to fences for certain uses.

4) Miscellaneous Zoning Code Updates to Section 17.50.230 (Religious Facilities), to revise language related to parking and Section 17.80.020 (Definitions), to update definitions related to dwelling unit and habitable room/space.

PROJECT LOCATION: Citywide

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The Planning Commission will consider whether adoption of the proposed Amendment is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), under the “Common Sense” exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The proposed amendments do not increase development capacity on properties or add uses that will generate impacts on surrounding properties.

APPROVALS NEEDED: The Planning Commission will conduct a public hearing and consider the proposed Zoning Code Amendments and environmental determination. The Planning Commission recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council, who will make a final decision at a separately noticed public hearing.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the

date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court.

4. Defendant OC EXPRESS, INC. (hereinafter, “OC EXPRESS”) a California corporation with its principal place of business in Cerritos, California, County of Los Angeles.

5. Defendant, ALOYSIUS DIMITRI NNADOZIE. (hereinafter, “ALOYSIUS”) is a natural person who at all times herein mentioned was a resident of the County of San Bernardino.

6. Plaintiff is ignorant of the true names and capacities of defendants sued herein as DOES 1- 50, inclusive, and therefore sue these defendants by such fictitious names. Plaintiff will amend this Complaint to allege their true names and capacities when ascertained.

18. As a direct and proximate result of the acts and omissions of the Defendants, and each of them, and the injuries resulting there-from, Plaintiff necessarily employed physicians and surgeons for medical examination, treatment, and care of these injuries, and incurred medical and incidental expenses.

New system to save millions of gallons of water during fire department drills

By City News Service

Arecyclingsystem that'scapableof simulating a free flowing fire hose -- without wasting water -- will be the main feature of a Riverside Fire Department drill Tuesday attended by the mayor, fire chief and other officials.

Theagency'snew "PumpPod" will be unveiled duringademonstration exercise scheduled for Tuesday morning at the city's Emergency Operations Center on Saint Lawrence Street.

The recirculation system was acquired by the fire department thanks to a $3 million California Department of Water Resources

grant administered by the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California.

"PumpPod is a closed system which recaptures and re-circulates the full-flowing water used during firefighter training, saving an estimated 3.5 to 4.5 million gallons of water per year," according to a municipal statement.

The system comes with a stand-alone training fire hydrant that's able to feed water on an uninterrupted basis. According to Sylmarbased PumpPod USA, the supplier, the unit is capable of delivering just over 2,000 gallons of water per minute. It's portable, enabling

The Riverside County Fair & National Date Festivalpresented by Fantasy Springs Resort Casino returns Feb. 12 to March 1 with a refreshed look, immersive new spaces, and a full lineup of entertainment.

Celebrating the Fair & Date Fest’s 78th year with the theme “Return to the Oasis,” organizers are refreshing the event’s 1001 Nights legacy and blending it with a mid-century style inspired by Greater Palm Springs’ architecture.

“We’re always looking for ways to make the things people love even better, while adding new surprises to bring guests back and welcome those who haven’t visited in a while,” said Chris Pickering, CEO of Pickering Events.

New for 2026, the Fair & Date Fest will debut the National Date Festival Museum inside the Sands of Time building, offering an engaging look at date farming, Festival history, and the agricultural roots of the Coachella Valley. Nearby, each space offers its own experience—from the Hall of Ribbons featur-

crews to train on it wherever they may be -- sparing them the need to travel to designated facilities.

Three to four engine crews are able to utilize the system at the same time, creating further efficiencies, officials said.

The Orange County Fire Authority and Ventura County Fire Department, along with the Los Angeles Fire Department, have acquired PumpPod systems. Additional units are slated for delivery elsewhere statewide.

"By enabling realistic firefighter training while continuously re- circulating water, PumpPod protects scarce water resources, reduces operational costs and enhances public safety,

without compromise," according to a company statement.

A new era for the Fair & Date Fest

ing competitive quilts, fine art, and baked goods, to the Cave of Wonders gem and mineral showcase, and the Palm Pavilion highlighting the Valley’s signature crop: dates.

Another highlight this year is the new Oasis Lounge & Tiki Bar, a relaxed hideaway within the fairgrounds that transports guests into a world of classic tiki drinks and tropical vibes. Designed as a true escape

from the midway, it’s an ideal place to cool off, recharge, and enjoy Hawaiian music on the Balcony Stage or Polynesian dancers and fire spinning performances on the Luau Stage.

The Fair & Date Fest arena schedule delivers entertainment throughout the run, including Monster Trucks on Feb. 12–13, the Monster X Demo Derby on Feb. 14, Gran JaripeoTardeada featuring Roberto

Tapia and more on Feb. 21, and PRCA Rodeo performances on Feb. 28 and March 1. Special ticketed experiences also include Love on the Wheel, a Valentine’sthemed sunset Ferris Wheel dating event; Bingo, Honey!, a comedy bingo show; and Shaken Midway, an interactive cocktail workshop.

Feb. 14 also marks Out at the Fair, an LGBTQ-inclusive day featuring live music, dance-fitness programming,

and a high-energy drag show with performers from One Eleven Bar, celebrating visibility, joy, and community.

Animal encounters remain a key part of the Fair & Date Fest experience, grounding the midway in agriculture and education.

Guests can enjoy hands-on learning at the petting farm and livestock exhibits, where kids see what it takes to care for animals and understand

the role agriculture plays in Fair tradition and daily life.

Daily entertainment is included with Fair & Date Fest admission and spans stages, midways, and strolling zones. Highlights include All-Alaskan Racing Pigs, JUMP! The Ultimate Dog Show, the Globe of Death motorcycle stunt show, Magic of Rafael, Science Wizard, Sea Lion Splash, the Petting Farm, livestock exhibits, and familyfriendly roaming performers throughout the grounds.

“The Riverside County Fair & National Date Festival reaches communities across the county and supports programs that matter,” said V. Manuel Perez, Riverside County Fourth District Supervisor. “Every visit helps sustain youth exhibits, arts and baking competitions, gem and mineral showcases, and the agricultural traditions that make Riverside County unique.”

The Riverside County Fair & National Date Festival runs Feb. 12 to March 1 at the Riverside County Fairgrounds in Indio, California. Tickets, schedules, and full event details are available at datefest.org.

BofA awards $500,000 grant to FIND Regional Food Bank in IE

By Sta

Bank of America has awarded a $500,000 grant to FIND Regional Food Bank to help complete its capital campaign for a new 40,000 square-foot warehouse on its Food Security Campus. The largest food bank and distribution center in the region, FIND Regional Food Bank's new facility provides nearly three times the space to meet record-level demand.

Announced at FIND's annual State of Hunger address for major stakeholders, the BofA grant helps fund a facility that will house cold storage for fresh produce, and a fully sustainable rooftop solar array that together serves as a key part of FIND's disaster response and resiliency plan. This grant, which also helps

fund workforce development training in the new warehouse, is in addition to nearly $200,000 in grants from BofA to FIND over the past 5 years.

"Today's food banks provide so much more than a meal. Organizations like FIND Regional Food Bank are community hubs for wellness, wrap-around services and even workforce training that collectively help people overcome barriers to economic mobility," said Sherri Anderson, BofA Inland Empire president.

"We are incredibly grateful to Bank of America for their generous support of FIND Regional Food Bank," said Debbie Espinosa, president & CEO of FIND Regional Food Bank. "This grant not

only completes our capital campaign for our new warehouse and Workforce Development Training Center, but it also strengthens our ability to provide fresh food, educational programs, and critical disaster-resilient infrastructure to the communities we serve. With this support, we can continue to meet rising demand to serve the over 100 nonprofit community organizations, and ensure that every person in need across our region has access to nutritious food and the resources to build a healthier, more stable future."

Nearly 11% of Inland Empire residents experience food insecurity, including one in six children in San Bernardino County and one in seven in Riverside County.

As demand for its services tripled during the pandemic, FIND outgrew its current facility, exceeding its storage capacity by 80%. Its initial operations included a 35,000 square foot space and three additional leased warehouses across a 100-mile radius.

The newly opened second

warehouse with expanded cold storage and refrigeration enables FIND to increase fresh produce distribution by 60% - meeting rising demand while eliminating remote storage costs and ensuring emergency food supplies remain local for rapid response in future crises.

Today, FIND provides over 20 million pounds of food annually to the region's major soup kitchens, food pantries, religious organizations, and nonprofits, collectively serving 125,000 people each month through a network of 155 distribution sites.

Surge in international travel propels Ontario International Airport to record year

By Sta

Ontario International Airport (ONT) posted a record number of international travelers in 2025, the result of expanded nonstop service to Latin America and Asia.

According to data released by the Ontario International Airport Authority (OIAA), ONT welcomed 567,000 international passengers last year, a nearly 30% increase over 2024.

Wapner, president of the Ontario International Airport Authority (OIAA) Board of Commissioners. "We are particularly gratified by the growth in international travel. Greater Los Angeles is the second-largest air travel market in the United States and the sixth-largest in the world. A region of this scale merits more than one global gateway, and Ontario International is stepping up to meet

that demand by delivering a world- class customer experience defined by convenience and the infrastructure necessary to support continued growth."

The 2025 passenger count of 7.1 million represented a 0.4% increase over 2024. The total included 6.5 million domestic passengers and 566,923 international guests, the latter representing an increase of 29.2%.

The top five air carriers for 2025 based on passenger volume share were:

Southwest Airlines (36.6%)

American Airlines (15.6%)

Frontier Airlines (10.4%)

Delta Air Lines (9.7%)

United Airlines (9.5%)

"As international passenger volumes have continued to grow, Ontario International has strategically expanded its airport offerings, includ-

ing the addition of two new passenger lounges, a dutyfree retail store, and enhanced in-terminal dining and retail concessions," said Atif Elkadi, OIAA's chief executive officer.

Air cargo tonnage, meanwhile, increased 5.3% year over year, led by greater U.S. mail volumes carried by UPS Airlines. Mail shipments doubled in 2025 while the volume of commercial freight declined slightly by 3.6%.

The firms retained under the master agreement will be part of a "shortlist" of go-to grant writers serving the county for one year, though that length of service can be extended.

The entities listed by the Park and Open Space District are: El Segundo-

based California Consulting Inc., Engineering Solutions Services of Laguna Hills, Evan Brooks Associates of Pasadena, FCS International Inc. of Irvine, MNS Engineers Inc. of Riverside, NCB

Inc. of Little Elm, Texas, Townsend Public Affairs of Corona and TRC Environmental Corp. of Windsor, Connecticut.

Objectives include submitting grant applications to pay for urban

forestry projects, land acquisition, energy conservation technology and overhead costs tied to keeping park rangers on staff.

The county has set aside $2.4 million to pay for the grant writers' services. However, any allocation over $200,000 will require prior board authorization. Payments will be made in arrears, after the district is invoiced for the grant writers' work.
