Green Tree Extension Celebration

We are excited to announce that we are nearing completion of our Green Tree Extension project. With all great endings, an even greater celebration is due. We will be hosting our Green Tree Celebration May 20 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the new Green Tree Bridge. Be one of the first to walk this newly-constructed bridge. This fun family event will include food, a fun walk, DJ, and a car show. To participate in the car show, please register at VictorvilleCA.gov/greentree. For more information, call (760) 245-5551. Barring any delays, the Green Tree Extension will be open to traffic soon after the celebration event.

We are looking for volunteers to fill three vacancies on our Measure P Oversight Committee. The committee reviews and certifies all expenditures of Measure P revenue. The vacant committee seats are for stakeholders representing the clergy, nonprofit/social services, and local major retail. Committee members must be Victorville residents and registered to vote at the time of appointment. Learn more and apply at VictorvilleCA.gov/mpoc.
