Stop by our Pet Adoption Popup at Fall Festival and find a 'furever' friend to join your family!  Our Animal Care & Control Staff will set up the Pet Adoption Popup in the grass between City Hall and the Courthouse.  Stop by and meet some of the adorable and loving pets we have available for adoption.  Vaccinations, pet licensing, and spay/neuter vouchers continue to be included with all pet adoptions.  Fall Festival is this Saturday, Oct. 7 from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. at City Hall.

In recent social media postings, we have been inspired by the future business and development ideas our residents have been sharing with us. As a result, we have created a new community survey at vv.city/EconomicDevelopmentSurvey that is available until Oct. 30. Your input matters to us and we would love to know the businesses you envision for Victorville's future development! 

We’re accepting applications from qualified community members who live or work in Old Town Victorville to serve on our Community Revitalization and Investment Authority (CRIA) Board. The CRIA is an investment mechanism to help with the revitalization of Old Town. Once established, the CRIA could use property tax increment revenue generated within the Old Town Specific Plan Area to fund revitalization activities like infrastructure improvements; low- and moderate-income housing development; real property acquisition; loans or grants to owners and tenants to improve, rehabilitate and retrofit buildings; and business assistance. If you’re interested in serving on the CRIA Board, submit the online application at VictorvilleCA.gov/CRIABoard no later than Oct. 13.

Our next Community Cleanup Day is Oct. 21 and we’re still seeking volunteers to join the effort to keep Victorville beautiful.  Volunteers will receive coupons for discounted lunch at local eateries and a FREE t-shirt while supplies last. The registration deadline is Oct. 6 at VictorvilleCA.gov/CCU.  For more information, call (760) 955-3306.  Help us keep Victorville Clean and #DumpItRightVV!
