|
|
As the the 2022-23 school year nears it's end, there's a lot going at Adelanto High School! First and foremost, Mayor Reyes, Mayor Pro Tem Ramos, and the City Council would like to congratulate the Class of 2023!
"We're so proud of this year's graduates! The Class of 2023, their parents, teachers, and community have worked tirelessly to push through some very challenging situations." said Mayor Pro Tem Daniel Ramos. "Our graduates will move on to become the next generation of educators, leaders, parents, civil servants, and so much more. Regardless of where life may take them, they'll always be able to call Adelanto 'home' and know that Adelanto High School gave them the support needed to build a firm educational foundation and sense of community."
The Adelanto High School Class of 2023 Graduation Ceremony will be held on Thursday, May 25th at 6:30pm. The ceremony will be live streamed and tickets are required for in-person attendance. Please see the AHS Class of 2023 website or call the school at (760) 246-3909 for more information.

In late April, the Adelanto High School 9th grade BARR (Building Assets, Reducing Risks) students spent several hours at City Hall learning about local government. Municipal staff spoke with students about their roles in various departments, including Code Enforcement, Land Use, Engineering, and Information Technology. Rather that a formal lecture or meeting, students were given an opportunity to engage directly with City officials. The freshman BARR students ask a myriad of well thought out and insightful questions.
City Manager Flores and his administration were proud to host the the group of Adelanto HS students and encouraged the BARR advisors to make this an annual event. "Forming and fostering relationships with the youth of our community helps to build a foundation of trust mutual respect." said City Manager Flores. "This administration is proud to partner with Adelanto High School's BARR Program and we look forward to connecting with students and staff again next year."

National Day of Prayer at City Hall
|
|
Established in 1952 by the United States Senate and House of Representatives, the National Day of Prayer is observed every year on the first Thursday of May. This interfaith tradition is celebrated amongst Americans from all walks of life, belief systems, and levels of observance. The focus of the National Day of Prayer is to encourage citizens to connect with their higher power in an effort to pray or meditate for the well-being of everyone in America.
This time honored tradition will be observed at City Hall on May 4th at noon. Local religious leaders will be present to lead this collective effort. All community members are welcome and encouraged to join this annual event. More information about the National Day of Prayer may be found on their website.

Auburn Avenue Paving Project
Capital Improvement Project Update
|
|
Adelanto's Auburn Avenue paving project is well underway and set to be completed by summer of 2023. This project will include new paving on Auburn Avenue from Highway 395 to Adelanto Road. Our crews will also pave Jonathan Street from Auburn Avenue to Barcelona Avenue. In addition, one block of Pearmain Street will be paved from Vintage Road to Chamberlain Way.
This capital improvement project is paving the road for industrial growth in this area of our City. Infrastructure investments, such as freshly laid asphalt and utility expansions, attract economic development. This translates to the creation of future jobs and opportunities for our local residents.

Code Enforcement In Action:
Cleaning Up our City
|
|
|
Blight abatement efforts continue in the the City of Adelanto. Your Code Enforcement team is working hard to clean up areas impacted by illegal dumping. Some of these sites have been previously occupied by unhoused individuals, making the debris removal more complicated than other areas. City staff work with property owners, specialized non-profit organizations, law enforcement, and social service agencies to ensure that vulnerable individuals are offered assistance in order to improve their quality of life and help break the cycle of homelessness.
|
|
Unfortunately, these projects are often time consuming and expensive. Property owners are responsible for keeping their land free from dangerous and unsightly debris. Garbage left behind at encampment often costs property owners thousands to remove.
"I encourage our residents to continue showing pride in our City by judiciously maintaining their individual properties." said Mayor Gabriel Reyes. "I applaud this administration’s continuing efforts to improve our community’s vision of beautification.”
Adelanto's Code Enforcement team responds to every complain reported by our community. Please let City Hall know right away if you see an area that needs to be check out by our staff. Visit Adelanto's Code Compliance website for more information or call City Hall at (760) 246-2300 to report illegal dumping.
