Rivian Comes to Eastvale

The City of Eastvale is pleased to announce the addition of a Rivian Service Center in the 77,000-square-foot industrial facility in The Ranch Specific Plan at the corner of Limonite Avenue and the Cucamonga Creek Channel.

Founded in 2009, the American electric vehicle maker produces the all-electric Rivian R1T pickup and R1S SUV as well as a custom electric delivery van for Amazon at its manufacturing plant in Normal, Il. At over 40 locations strong, Rivian’s network of service centers aim to provide seamless vehicle service and ownership support. Apart from vehicle service, the service center will also serve as a location for new owners to take delivery of their R1.

As Rivian’s Eastvale Service Center ramps up deliveries of its category-defining electric adventure vehicles, the City eagerly anticipates the positive impact the new vehicle service facility will have on the local economy, job market, and the overall vibrancy of the community.

Shop with a Cop

Earlier this month, the City of Eastvale was excited to visit the Riverside County Sheriff's Department as they conducted their annual Shop with a Cop event in the Eastvale Gateway!

Shop with a Cop is a community outreach program organized by the Riverside County Sheriff's Department to bring joy and foster positive relationships between law enforcement officers and the youth of Eastvale.

The day starts with a shared meal, providing an opportunity for the children and officers to connect on a personal level and continues as they embark on a unique shopping spree, exploring various stores. Participating children have the chance to pick out items of their choice, with no cost incurred by them or their families. This gesture not only brings smiles to the faces of the young participants but also reinforces a positive connection with law enforcement!

A heartfelt thank you goes out to RSO for orchestrating this impactful event and to Target and Dick's Sporting Goods for the partnership.

Candy Cane Lane

This December, the City was happy to partner with the Riverside County Sheriff's Department for another heartwarming Candy Cane Lane!

Slurry Seal FAQ

Over the last several weeks many residents have reached out to us regarding our recent slurry seal project.

Rest assured; the roadways are not complete! The slurry seal process takes several months to complete, and we are committed to the completion of this project.

If you have any questions regarding the project, check out these frequently asked questions!

Question: What is slurry seal?

Answer: Slurry seal provides a protective coating for our streets and is designed to seal and extend the life of the pavement.

Question: When will this project be completed?

Answer: Work began in November and should take approximately three months to complete. However, factors like weather may affect the time line.

Question: What can I expect from the slurry seal?

Answer: When the slurry seal is applied, it is a light brown color due to the chemical reactions and the temperature of the mix. As the mix becomes exposed to heat and sunlight, it will begin to turn black. Even after the streets are open, it takes several months for the slurry to completely cure. Because of this, normal driving on recently slurried streets may cause tire tracks or gouges from turning wheels. While this will affect only the appearance of the streets, and many times is unavoidable, much of this will disappear with time and traffic. Street striping and markings will be replaced approximately two weeks after the slurry seal is applied.

Question: Will the gravel on my street be cleaned up?

Answer: Yes. If your street was recently sealed, rest assured that the gravel is a normal part of the process. Once the slurry seal is fully set, which may take several weeks, crews will return to roadways to continue the work. Driving on the gravel in the meantime is perfectly safe and normal. Over the next few weeks American Asphalt will increase street sweeping to decrease the gravel.
