The future of Riverside is being mapped out right now—but does that map include a place for you to live, work, and thrive?
Join the PICK Group’s Civic Committee for an essential conversation on how the City’s long-term vision intersects with the economic realities of being a young professional in 2026. As Riverside updates its General Plan and Climate Action & Adaptation Plan (CAAP) for 2050, the decisions made today will dictate the cost of living and housing availability for decades to come.
Why This Matters
We’re diving deep into the "how" and "why" of urban policy through the lens of our generation. We’ll discuss:
Housing & Affordability: How the General Plan Update aims to tackle the housing crisis.
Economic Development: The vital link between sustainable policy and a thriving local job market.
The 2050 Vision: How the Climate Action & Adaptation Plan impacts the everyday cost of living for Riverside’s workforce.
Featured Guest Speakers
We are honored to be joined by two key architects of Riverside’s future:
Fortino Morales – Sustainability Manager, City of Riverside
Matthew Taylor – Acting City Planner, City of Riverside
