This is a opportunity to inform our city elected officials on what you see as important or a direction the city has been taking that you don’t agree with. This is your opportunity to plug in and become aware of the decisions being made on your behalf.

The Mayor and City Department Heads will be available to receive comments and answer questions from the residents. Mayor Robertson is looking forward to a candid dialog with community members to help understand and take into consideration perspectives from residents as the City Council plans for a second century of progress for Rialto. Mayor Robertson understands the success of the City of Rialto is directly related to meeting the needs of our community.
