Corona Wants Residents to Shape Its Next Five-Year Strategic Plan: Community Survey Now Open

CORONA, Riverside County — October 23, 2026. California58 Local examined a public agency’s current records for this report. Descriptions of proposals, hearing schedules, permits and projected effects are not treated as completed actions or future guarantees.

What is the city asking for?

The City of Corona published an October 8, 2026 invitation asking residents, workers and people who spend time in Corona to help shape a new five-year Strategic Plan. The questionnaire invites ideas on parks, road improvements, connectivity and community programs, as well as concerns the city may not have listed in advance. The survey is public engagement rather than a ballot measure or funding award.

What could a plan change?

A multi-year strategic plan can guide city staff and elected officials when prioritizing budgets, projects and performance measures. The planning exercise does not by itself approve a park, create a transit line or promise a road will be repaired. Voters and residents should look for a later adopted plan, formal budget votes and funded capital projects when assessing what changed.

How can people participate?

The official city news announcement links a ‘Take the Survey’ questionnaire. People can use it to identify specific sidewalks, accessibility barriers, flooding concerns, parks or road corridors. In a useful response, describe the location and practical effect rather than only requesting an abstract improvement. Confirm any survey deadline on the live city page before submitting.

How the newsroom will follow up

Corona News will compare the adopted plan, when issued, with the input the city solicited and later annual budgets. Community organizations may also submit original public records and documented neighborhood concerns for independent editorial review.
