During the recent government meeting, local officials provided updates on various county and regional activities. Mayor and council members reported on their attendance at several meetings, with notable highlights from Linda and Jeff.

Linda shared insights from her participation in the RTA budget and finance committee meeting, describing the agenda as routine. She also attended a chamber breakfast meeting on August 13, where Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco addressed the community. Additionally, she noted that the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) did not hold a meeting in August due to their seasonal recess.

Both Linda and Jeff attended the state of the county address for the fifth district on August 14 at Morongo, which was well-attended and informative. Jeff emphasized the significance of the county's financial status, revealing that it has reserves nearing $700 million and recently approved a $9.6 billion budget—larger than that of eleven states in the U.S.

City Manager comments included gratitude towards Supervisor Gutierrez and the Beaumont Cherry Valley Recreation Park District for hosting a successful movie in the park event on August 9, which drew a large crowd. Although no further events are planned for this year, the city is considering hosting more next year due to the positive community response.
