Here's a quick roundup from today's San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors meeting:
Fourth District Highlights:
Born and raised in Chino, Steve Wayne Lewis dedicated his life to serving the community through roles on the Planning Commission, Community Services Commission, Design Review Board, and the Chino Youth Museum Board. He was also the IT Support Coordinator at KDC Construction. After a courageous battle with cancer, Steve passed away on September 30, 2035. Supervisor Curt Hagman adjourned today’s meeting in his honor.
During board comments, Supervisor Hagman mentioned:
San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA):
- This fall, SBCTA will begin developing a comprehensive Regional Homelessness Strategic Plan to better align local and regional efforts addressing homelessness.
- Additionally, the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) awarded $2.3 million in REAP 2.0 funding to support housing element implementation and provide technical assistance to local jurisdictions.
- SBCTA also recently approved $3.3 million for improvements to the SR 60/Euclid Avenue interchange enhancing traffic flow and safety for commuters across the region.
