State of the City

On Thursday, August 1 at 11:30 a.m., we will be holding our annual State of the City Luncheon. Moreno Valley residents, local businesspeople, and regional dignitaries will be in attendance as we review and celebrate the City’s milestones and accomplishments. 

 

We will look back on the last 12 months, but we will also be looking forward to the future: Our very bright and promising future.

 

This year’s State of the City theme is ‘People | Pride | Progress.’ 

 

We will highlight the incredible talents, work ethic, and uncompromising standards that our people demonstrate in their daily and professional lives.

 

We will showcase the many ways in which we, as a community, share pride in our work, pride in our City and pride in our values of innovation, conservation, and fiscal responsibility.

 

And we will share the incredible progress we have made in a year’s time, and share the exciting plans for the future.  

 

We will also be acknowledging the outstanding, game-changing efforts of our people and partners with our Community Achievement Awards.

 

Tickets for this year’s State of the City Address are sold out, but you can stream the event online. We will broadcast live on our YouTube channel, Facebook account, and MV3.

 

Let’s celebrate Moreno Valley’s People, Pride, and Progress together!
