Legislature Passes Senator Richard Roth´s Resolution Urging Congress and the President to Give the City of Eastvale Its Own Zip Code

SACRAMENTO, CA—Senator Richard Roth’s (D-Riverside) Senate Joint Resolution (SJR) 3, which urges Congress and the President to give the City of Eastvale its own zip code, has passed both houses of the State Legislature. Currently Eastvale shares a zip code with the City of Jurupa Valley and a zip code with the City of Corona.

“The passage of SJR 3 sends a clear message to the federal government that the City of Eastvale not only deserves its own zip code for purposes of its identity, but requires it for daily operations,” said Senator Roth.  “The lack of its own zip code has burdened Eastvale residents with mail delivery disruptions, miscalculated insurance rates, business recruitment challenges and it may potentially lead to emergency service delays in the event of a disaster.”

“In February 2023, I introduced a resolution which was unanimously approved by my colleagues on the Riverside County Board of Supervisors, calling for the establishment of an independent zip code for the City of Eastvale,” said Riverside County Supervisor Karen Spiegel. “I applaud Senator Roth for his support of this important issue.”

“Receiving a new and independent ZIP code would rectify issues that have plagued our community for over 13 years” stated Eastvale’s Mayor, Todd Rigby. “Having multiple ZIP codes that do not match our municipal boundaries has a real-world impact on our residents and businesses in our community—including challenges with emergency management, public safety, business attraction, mail delivery, and insurance policies. The Eastvale City Council appreciates Senator Roth’s leadership and the Legislature’s overwhelming support of SJR 3. We hope this sends a strong, unified message to Congress and the White House for swift action to address this important community issue.”
