Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Rancho Cucamonga public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Completed park and facility projects
Three finished projects — the playground at Mountain View Park, the Central Park courtyard, and EV chargers at the corporate yard — are ready for formal sign-off.
Residential parkway tree dispute
A resident asked the council for help removing two problem city parkway trees after a previously proposed resolution didn't work for her family; she submitted a letter for council review.
Delinquent Solid Waste Charge Collections
The council scheduled a May 20 public hearing to place liens on properties with unpaid trash bills from 2025. Delinquent fees become special assessments collected through property taxes.
CFD No. 2022-01 annexations (Nos. 2026-1, 2026-2, 2026-4, 2026-6)
Four territories were added to the city's street lighting district after unanimous landowner consent, meaning those parcels will pay special taxes for street lighting maintenance.
GOAT Microtransit Program Performance
The federally funded GOAT shuttle connecting Rancho Cucamonga and Ontario destinations is off to a strong start, with 4.9-star ratings and growing ridership in its first months.
Completion of FY 2024/25 street overlay program
The city officially wrapped up last year's neighborhood street paving project at a final cost of about $2.8 million, with $252K left over returning to road funds. One little-used crosswalk was removed after 30 days of public notice drew no comments.
Etiwanda Historical Society Sustainability
The society preserved local history and drew nearly 4,300 visitors last year, but membership is down to about 30 and fundraising barely covers upkeep of the historic Chaffey-Garcia and Chaffey-ISLE homes. They're asking the community to join and support.
