Our two Morongo Basin municipalities, the City of Twentynine Palms and the Town of Yucca valley, are sharing honors as a California Strong City, Strong State. Reporter Dan Stork has the kudos…
The Town of Yucca Valley has joined the City of Twentynine Palms among the dozens of California cities that are featured on the Strong Cities | Strong State web site. The web site is part of an ongoing campaign that promotes City success stories alongside profiles of the elected officials and city managers, showing them working together to build and maintain a high quality of life for California city and town residents. For Yucca Valley, the success stories include an account of community events, the arts and culture environment, collaboration with other agencies, and sustainable community strategies. In addition to the “success stories” is a set of testimonials from officials of other governmental and private agencies, such as the Hi-Desert Water District and Basin-Wide Foundation, that have collaborated with the Town, and from developers of commercial and housing projects. For Twentynine Palms, the success stories highlight Theatre 29, recreation, redevelopment projects, new lodging, and art in public places, while the testimonials come from business people in the city, and National Park and Marine Corps representatives. The Strong Cities | Strong State campaign will continue for the next 18 months, with more cities being added every day. The web site is www.strongcitiesstrongstate.com.
