Welcome -

It has been a privilege to serve as your Mayor during these past five years.

As Mayor I have led with a collaborative voice for citizens, focused on providing real solutions and government transparency. My time spent studying at West Point and serving as a U.S. Army Officer taught me about the need for principled leadership.

Our city is outpacing national averages in job growth, making huge strides towards ending veteran homelessness, increasing use of renewable energy, developing new transportation infrastructure and assisted in returning control of Ontario Airport to local officials.

With your help, I want to continue building on Riverside’s success and drive towards our vision of making this community a world-class place to live, work, and raise a family.

-Rusty
