former 1930s movie theater in the heart of downtown Fontana has been transformed into Stage Red, a sleek, state-of-the-art music venue led by hometown icons Sammy Hagar and IZ Avila. With a sold-out opening night on June 15, 2024, featuring Hagar himself, city officials and artists say the intimate venue marks a new chapter in live entertainment for the Inland Empire.

hall. It’s a place that makes people say, ‘Wow,’ as soon as they walk in,” said David Uribe, venue manager. “Whether it’s rock, jazz, EDM, or local artists, this space is built for top-tier sound and unforgettable experiences.”

The city-owned building at 8463 Sierra Ave. was originally constructed in 1937, purchased in 2003, and reconditioned in 2007. But it wasn’t until Deputy City Manager Phillip Burum and his team teamed up with Hagar’s branding agents and Avila’s creative vision that the longdormant space was reimagined into a near-

ly 500-seat venue, complete with a fanfirst layout: a general admission pit, tiered mezzanine, 50-seat balcony, and VIP meet-and-greet rooms that double as private DJ lounges for select shows.

“The design is driven by the artists and fans. It’s not about maximizing ticket sales, it’s about maximizing impact,” said Burum. “This is a community amenity first—something to help rebrand how people see downtown Fontana.”

Homelessness Falls 14% in San Bernardino County, Stabilizes in Riverside — But State Cuts Threaten Momentum

an Bernardino County recorded a 14.2% decrease in homelessness in 2025, marking the first decline in three years and highlighting the growing impact of regional data-driven strategies.

According to the latest Pointin-Time Count (PITC), conducted on January 23, the number of unsheltered individuals dropped from 3,153 in 2024 to 2,718 in 2025. That decrease follows a 1% increase in 2024.

“The data from this year is encouraging because it shows that our efforts are making a difference,” said Board of Supervisors Vice Chair and Fifth District Supervisor Joe Baca, Jr., who also chairs the Continuum of Care Board.

“Although our work is far from over, I’m glad to see progress in reducing homelessness.”

The PITC, coordinated by the San Bernardino County Homeless Partnership and

Office of Homeless Services, offers a critical snapshot of homelessness that informs resource allocation and policy.

“Data from this year’s PointIn-Time Count will allow us to effectively address homelessness in our communities and ensure funding is directed to where it’s needed most,” Baca Jr. said.

County leaders credit the decrease to expanded outreach efforts and increased investment in housing infrastructure.

“The county appreciates the funding that has been allocated to support local governments in providing support and services for people experiencing homelessness,” said Marcus Dillard, chief of homeless services.

Dillard added that more than $22 million was secured last year to support permanent housing and critical services.

- Burum, a longtime music lover, emphasized the city’s commitment to curating culturally rich programming while helping local youth explore careers in music production and stagecraft. “We’re investing in experience, not just economics,” he said. “Music sets the tone for how a city is perceived, and Fontana deserves to be seen differently.”

Fontana native and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Sammy Hagar lent his name and creative team to the project, while IZ Avila of The Avila Brothers—Grammy winners and the first Mexican Americans to produce a Super Bowl halftime show—has stepped in as the venue’s cultural architect.

“Stage Red is a place I call home,” said Avila, who grew up in neighboring Rialto. “It’s where I can curate experiences that speak to community, education, and entertainment. This venue allows people to get dressed up, feel something real, and see themselves on stage.”

Avila is bringing his DJ mentorship program “All Hands On Decks” to both Rialto and Fontana Unified School Districts this fall.

The five-week course, powered by Numark and Rane, blends the fundamentals of DJing with life coaching—an effort he says is aimed at sparking confidence and career aspirations in the region’s youth.

All three leaders envision a future lineup that includes a balance of emerging and iconic talent.

Burum said he hopes to book acts like Dave Matthews and Joe Jonas (with the latter being a request by a family member). Uribe noted interest in groups like Red Hot Chili Peppers and Cage the Elephant.

For Avila, the dream is to mentor and showcase local elementary, middle, and high school talent, giving them the same platform used by Grammy-winning artists.

He added that he could even imagine bringing longtime collaborator and friend Usher—whose Super Bowl halftime show he co-produced—to Stage Red for an intimate evening of storytelling and music. “Just Usher, a mic, a piano, and the stories behind the songs— those are the kinds of unforgettable moments this space is built for,” Avila said.

The venue’s name and mission— crafted by Hagar’s branding team—are rooted in storytelling, Burum said. “It’s not about revenue first,” he added. “It’s about being that place where artistry meets community. You don’t have to drive to L.A. anymore to see world-class talent.”

Upcoming acts at Stage Red include The Village People, Julian Marley, and guitarist Orianthi. The venue’s flexibility also allows for special nights like Avila’s signature Halloween bash “IZ’s Night of Grooves & Ghouls,” returning October 25.

“Our common thread is belief,” said Avila. “Show kids what it takes to put on a show—from the lights to the boards—and suddenly they can see themselves doing it.

This is for Rialto, Fontana, and the whole IE.”

“This is just the beginning,” said Burum. “We’re already looking at a second parking structure, and long-term, we want to see more nightlife—bars, restaurants—developed around Stage Red to help downtown become a destination.”

Avila added that Stage Red is not just a venue, but a springboard. “I want to sit down here with Bobby (his brother and second half of The Avila Brothers), share stories, talk about creativity, community, and even spin some records,” he said.

“This place was made to show kids and creatives what’s possible.”

For Avila, the impact is already clear. “To have something like this in my backyard, something beautiful that people want to be a part of, that means everything,” he said. “Stage Red is a Mecca in the making.”

- tions, we’ve been able to connect individuals to shelter, supportive services and permanent housing. We will continue to do all that we can to help resolve this issue,” he said.

Within San Bernardino County, Redlands has experienced the most significant city-level progress. The number of homeless individuals in Redlands dropped 31% from 213 in 2024 to 146 in 2025, following a 34% drop the previous year. The city attributes its progress to targeted investments, including a $30 million Homekey grant used to convert a former motel into the Step Up in Redlands supportive housing facility.

Since opening in 2023, the facility has offered permanent housing and services to more than 100 individuals.

“Two years of reduction in homelessness, according to the Point-In-Time Count numbers, demonstrate that we are on the right track and making significant progress,” said Redlands City Manager Charlie Duggan.

Riverside, meanwhile, is seeing stabilization in its unsheltered population while increasing placements into shelter and housing. The city reported 614 unsheltered individuals in 2025, holding steady from 605 in 2023, and placed a record 1,687 people into housing during fiscal year 2023–24.

“These data clearly show that our efforts are having a real impact,” said Riverside Mayor Patricia Lock Dawson. “We’re moving in the right direction.”

As Inland Empire jurisdictions push forward, local officials continue to emphasize the importance of collaboration and sustained investment.

The gains seen across San Bernardino County, Riverside, and Redlands underscore that when data guides decisions and resources are equitably distributed, real progress is possible.

“Where you have pursued your degree is a space filled with history, that is, the lived lives of so many humans who came before you,” he told graduates and their families and friends.

“Know that this is your heritage, your history – in its richness, in its diversity, in its many voices and languages and traditions. As Californians, we are not one thing. Rather we are many. And that is our strength.”

SUSB celebrates its Class of 2025 The five Cal State San Bernardino Spring Commencement exercises, in the words of Carson Fajardo, the graduating student government president, were more than ceremonies.

They were moments that represented “years of dedication, late nights, early mornings, setbacks and comebacks,” that changed not only the course of the graduates’ lives, “but for our families and for the communities we come from.”

And such moments, said university President Tomás D. Morales in his commencement address shared at each of the ceremonies, were built on history and on the efforts that came before.

Many of the newly minted CSUSB alumni are the first in their families to earn a college degree.

“With this achievement,” Morales said, “you have broken a barrier and will now forever be a role model for siblings, relatives and future generations.”

Yet as standard bearers for a future still to be written, Morales reminded them of all that came before them that collectively shaped their present. He spoke of California’s indigenous First Peoples on whose homeland the two university campuses sit. He went on to recount those that came after, “waves of immigrants, willing or not,” that included explorers and the enslaved, and those seeking freedom and opportunity for a better life.

Yet even amid the encouraging local progress, state-level uncertainties could jeopardize future gains. The proposed 2025-26 state budget includes no funding for the Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention (HHAP) grant program—previously a vital resource for cities combatting homelessness. “The Governor’s proposal includes zero funding for the Housing, Homeless Assistance and Prevention grant program to support cities’ efforts to prevent and reduce homelessness in our communities,” said Carolyn Coleman, CEO of the League of California Cities.

CSUSB Graduates Cross Stage at Spring 2025 Commencement, Marking Historic Doctoral Milestone and First-Gen Achievements

More than 3,000 graduates marched across the stage at the Toyota Arena in Ontario on May 16 and 17 to the cheers of family and friends, along with university faculty and staff. That number included 20 who received their doctorate in educational leadership, the most ever in CSUSB’s history.

Juan C Luna celebrates after formally receiving his doctoral hood in educational leadership from Enrique Murillo Jr., director of the Doctorate in Educational Leadership program.

Riverside County’s Homeless Action Plan outlines a strategy to reach functional zero homelessness through a five-year vision. The plan includes a 75% increase in permanent housing units, a 25% increase in shelter bed capacity, and a 75% reduction in first-time homelessness.

It also identifies key structural barriers, including a shortage of affordable housing—only 18 affordable and available homes exist per 100 renter households in the region.

“We must focus on keeping people from falling into homelessness just as we now focus on those living on the streets,” said Riverside City Manager Mike Futrell. “That strategy will reduce homelessness more effectively in Riverside.”

“What was eventually created, and what is still being created, is a living history of California,” Morales said. “A history we need to know, a history we need to value – in its ugliness and heartache, in its hope, in its moments of betterment for individual lives, and in its creation of

Part of that strength is the foundation built and inherited “from the many, many peoples and traditions and histories which have formed and shaped each of you and your classmates,” Morales said.

“You know that you are stronger and better equipped to face the future because of those who came before,” he said. “We are also stronger together, not apart. As resilient individuals, facing a future which is not yet written, you have the tools, you have the skills, you have the knowledge to break new ground and build tomorrow.”

In his brief remarks, Fajardo, who graduated with a bachelor’s degree in administration and was student government president for two consecutive terms, foreshadowed some of the thoughts Morales would later share.

“Earning a degree from Cal State San Bernardino is no small achievement,” he said.

“Many of us are the first in our families to do this. Many of us work jobs, sometimes more than one, while attending school full-time. Some of us commuted long hours, cared for loved ones, or balanced parenting and exams.”

“But we did it. And today, we celebrate the fact that we refuse to give up,” Fajardo said. “This degree is not just a piece of paper, it is proof.

Proof that we are capable, that we're prepared, that we belong in boardrooms, classrooms, hospitals, studios, nonprofits, wherever our passion takes us. And wherever we go next, we carry our communities with us. We carry our stories, our hustle, and our pride.”

Public Safety Redlands Teacher Elvin Vereau Arrested for Alleged Child Abuse and Torture Charges Sex Abuse of Minor, Placed on Leave by District Filed Against Three Adults Caring for Multiple Children in Victorville Community News

O

n May 14, 2025, the San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office filed multiple felony charges against Tina Marie Sheffield Key, (60), Kenneth, Michael Key, (60), and their adult daughter Katlynn Marresa Key, (23) of Victorville.

Community News

n Tuesday, May 13, 2025, the Riverside Police Department’s Sexual Assault – Child Abuse Unit (SACA) arrested 52year-old Elvin Vereau of Riverside for ongoing sexual abuse of a child under the age of 10.

This past Sunday, officers responded to a residence in the Orangecrest neighborhood of Riverside for a reported family disturbance. During the investigation, they learned that a female juvenile had been sexually abused by Mr. Vereau over several years.

On-call detectives immediately launched a follow-up investigation, which resulted in Mr. Vereau’s arrest. He was booked into the Robert Presley Detention Center on multiple sexual abuse charges. A bail enhancement was granted, and he is being held on $2 million bail.

Vereau is a temporary Special Academic Instruction (SAI) teacher at Citrus Valley High School.

Vereau has been employed with Redlands Unified School District (RUSD) since July 2013. He initially served as a paraprofessional from 2013 to 2022, transitioned into a teaching role in 2022 to 2023, and began serving in his current position in the 2023-2024 school year.

Upon learning of the arrest, the District immediately placed the employee administrative leave pending further investigation. The District is fully cooperating with law enforcement authorities and will continue to support the investigation. Out of respect for the ongoing investigation and privacy

of those involved, no additional information will be shared at this time.

“Our top priority is, and always will be, the safety and well-being of our students,” said Superintendent Juan Cabral. “Every employee must pass a series of background checks, including a Department of Justice check, prior to starting to work with our students. This process also includes the requirement for all employees to maintain good legal standing that is consistently monitored by our Human Resources department.”

After an extensive investigation conducted by San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department Crimes Against Children Unit, and Loma Linda University Medical Center Children’s Assessment Center, it is alleged that Kenneth and Tina Key and their adult daughter subjected all six children (aged four - sixteen), to years of physical, emotional, and mental abuse. The abuse included daily beatings, strangulation to the point of unconsciousness, and

punishments of withholding food and water from the children for a period of days.

All three defendants have each been charged with the following: Six counts of PC 206 - Torture, for each victim.

One count of PC 273 - Child Abuse Under Circumstances Likely to Cause Great Bodily Injury or Death.

Additionally, our prosecutors are alleging a special allegation of personal infliction of great bodily injury.

The Co-Defendants arraignment date is Thursday, May 15th, via video at Rancho Cucamonga Superior Courthouse.

San Bernardino County Awarded $38.7M for Homelessness and Substance Use Treatment Facility Community News

S

an Bernardino County is close to receiving $38.7 million in state grant funding to support the Pacific Village Campus, an innovative project designed to meet the needs of people experiencing homelessness.

Earlier this month, county Behavioral Health received a conditional award letter from the state Department of Health Care Services confirming the full $38.7 million the county had requested to fund the project. This expansion directly supports the County’s ongoing efforts to strengthen the behavioral health continuum of care and expand residential treatment capacity for vulnerable populations, including those impacted by homelessness.

“This investment is fundamental to fulfilling our mission and underscores our unwavering commitment to providing essential care and support to those who need it most. We are here to serve, and this funding profoundly enhances our capacity to do just that,” said Department of Behavioral Health Director, Dr. Georgina Yoshioka.

This project, in partnership with county Community Development and Housing, is designed to create a “one-stop shop” for housing supports and services, including access to recuperative care, substance use disorder (SUD) treatment, and permanent supportive housing, for San Bernardino County residents.

“By fostering collaboration among various stakeholders and integrating innovative treatment modalities, we believe this project will significantly improve outcomes for individuals facing behavioral health challenges.” said Board of Supervisors Chairman and Third District Supervisor Dawn Rowe. “We are committed to ensuring that every member of our community has access to the care they need, and we see this project as a vital step toward achieving that goal.”

“Pacific Village is a strategic initiative of San Bernardino County aimed at developing a comprehensive continuum of care to support the county's most vulnerable populations,” said Board of Supervisors Vice Chair and Fifth District Supervisor Joe Baca, Jr. “This grant will allow us to establish 32 much-needed residential treatment beds for individuals battling substance use disorders.

This investment signifies our commitment to expanding access to quality care and supporting healthier, stronger communities for all.”

“This grant represents a pivotal step forward in creating solutions for social service needs within our county and addressing critical issues,” said Fourth District Supervisor Curt Hagman, who along with Baca, Jr., serves on the Board’s Ad Hoc Committee on Homelessness.

The state this week announced

that 124 sponsors have been awarded a total of $3.3 billion in competitive funding awards for projects that support behavioral health infrastructure through the Department of Health Care Services’ (DHCS) Proposition 1 Bond BHCIP Round 1: Launch Ready. This gives the sponsors new opportunities to address gaps in care and create sustainable improvements that better serve the community.

In December, the Board of Supervisors agreed to submit a grant application for the Bond Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program (BHCIP) Round 1 for the Pacific Village Campus Project.

Reyes’ Bill to Foster Small Business Growth across California Advances Community News

S

enator Eloise Gómez Reyes (D-Colton) today announced that her bill to foster small business growth in California passed out of the Senate Committee on Local Government with unanimous, bipartisan support late last month. Senate Bill (SB) 781 would provide a framework for local governments to increase small business access to local government contracts and resources for strategic growth initiatives. The bill will next be heard by the Senate Appropriations Committee.

“The Inland Empire is ripe with talent and opportunity, but the economic environment makes it difficult for small businesses to survive,” said Senator Eloise Gomez-Reyes (D-Colton). “At the same time, our region remains in desperate need for diverse and sustainable growth and investment. SB 781 provides community-driven strategies and support to cut red tape and foster an environment that allows small businesses to breathe and thrive.”

San Bernardino County Unveils BizHUUB, a No-Cost Online Hub for Small Business Growth Community News

S

an Bernardino County its launched has BizHUUB online platform to provide entrepreneurs with free online resources to help grow their businesses.

County Bernardino San at found BizHUUB, myhuub.com/selectsbcounty, is a countywide online resource center for small businesses that features free on-demand business tips and guidance from local experts along with a 24/7 booking portal to hire experts. On the portal, business owners have access to educational webinars and expert consultants on a number of everyday challenges such as building websites, upgrading business brands, conducting a financial review, organizing books for end-of-year taxes, and so much more. The information and resources are provided at no cost to small business owners and en-

trepreneurs located Bernardino County.

San

“We are committed to growing and supporting our small business community,” said San Bernardino County Economic Development Director Derek Armstrong. “We hear about the constant challenges business owners face. It can be overwhelming. That is why we’re making this important in-depth resource available to our small business community that they can access on their timeline.”

Not only does BizHUUB provide tips and guidance, but the portal also creates a thriving entrepreneurial community for members with features such as a funding directory, learning library with educational courses, events calendar, and ecosystem map via its Community Resource Directory. Plus, BizHUUB is accessible in English and Spanish.

Over half of California’s private sector workforce is powered by more than 4 million businesses with fewer than 500 employees. These small businesses bridge gaps in supply chains, bring innovative products and ideas into the marketplace, and help American products enter global markets.

While small businesses serve as an essential foundation of the California economy, many have struggled to rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic.

This is especially true in the Inland Empire region, where more than 50 percent of small businesses report declining revenues and limited access to capital, according to the 2023 report by the University of California, Riverside Center for Social Innovation. Additionally, Riverside and San Bernardino counties consistently lag behind the state average in small business loan approvals and startup growth, highlighting the tougher climate for small/micro enterprises.

Uncertainty for small businesses is further exacerbated by Executive Orders issued by the federal administration targeting those who work with Minority Business Development Centers. This uncertainty is inadvertently accelerated by a California state law requiring Small Businesses Technical Assistance Program grant applicants to acquire matching federal dollars.

SB 781 proposes a comprehensive framework for local governments that seek to adopt Small Business Utilization Plans. Among other elements, the Plans would include a 25 percent minimum goal for small business procurement participation. Plans would provide local procurement incentives, preferences, and flexibility in solicitation requirements, as well as training to support successful implementation by local government staff. These provisions would provide a lifeline to neighborhood contractors, childcare providers, local print shops, and family-run maintenance and landscaping businesses, among many others.

To help local governments succeed, the bill also authorizes the California Office of the Small Business Advocate to provide mentorship and guidance on strategic growth initiatives. Such a partnership between state and local entities would foster growth among sectors employing the fewest number of employees with acute contributions to local economies, particularly for those in traditionally underserved communities. These might include budding tech entrepreneurs, family-owned restaurants and catering businesses, home health care and elder care services, and those in digital first retail or service spaces.

SB 781 also clarifies that the state will be able to continue to fund small business programs regardless of federal matching requirements, which will make it easier for those supporting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives to withstand shifting federal priorities.

SB 781 is sponsored by California Chambers of Commerce representing minority-owned businesses across the state.

“SB 781 will establish local Small Business Utilization Programs to support small businesses, expand their operations, create jobs, and strengthen local economies.” Julian Canete, President and CEO, California Hispanic Chambers of Commerce.

“Establishing local Small Business Utilization Programs through SB 781 provides essential support for small businesses to grow and thrive, fostering economic and workforce development where it matters most—at the local level.” Pat FongKushida, President and CEO, California Asian Pacific Chamber of Commerce.

City of Riverside Summer Concerts in the Park Series Starts June 11

Board President and former California Assemblymember Cheryl Brown began organizing the event on behalf of the Foundation five years ago. Brown, Board Member Debra Fields, and a team of supporters have brought families together for the event each year. “This year’s American Girl Tea Party will delight toddlers to grandparents,” said Brown.

American Girl dolls are teen favorites, but they can be very expensive to buy. So, Brown proposed to the Library Foundation Board that these dolls, along with their accompanying life story books, be made available for checkout at the downtown library. The board approved her initiative, and the library now offers many dolls that children can borrow.
