January 21, 2010 <br />State of the City Address <br />Mayor Ronald O. Loveridge <br />Riverside, California <br />RENAISSANCE CITY: "SEIZING OUR DESTINY" <br />Thank you Cindy Roth for hosting this 33rd State of the City. And kudos to your leadership of <br />the Chamber over the past ten years - -you have set a remarkable standard. <br />Thank you to the voters of Riverside for their confidence and support. While I have stood for <br />election nine times, four as a Council member and five as Mayor, I am especially thankful for <br />their decisive votes on November 3r <br />Thank you to members of the Riverside City Council, present and past, for your active support. <br />More than anyone else, you know my work, and record, up front and personal. <br />Thank you to so many residents for their strong encouragement in this past campaign. I am <br />deeply and personally appreciative. I will always remember the smiles, "good job," and thumbs <br />up. <br />And thank you to Marsha, my wife, partner, and best friend. It is not easy being the spouse of an <br />elected official. In so many ways, she has supported and sustained the past thirty years. <br />As the campaign for reelection took form, so did an overriding message. To borrow the Dickens <br />language, it is both the best of times and the worst of times. And best of times offers promise for <br />Riverside's economic recovery as an exciting, diverse, urban, and successful city, a City of Arts <br />and Innovation. <br />When I visited Sandals church in the Fall, I heard two lines from a song that sums up my vision <br />for Riverside: "For greater things have yet to come. And greater things are still to be done in this <br />city." <br />In the next three years, I pledge my best efforts to make greater things happen in Riverside! <br />RENAISSANCE CITY MARKERS <br />The first cover of the Riverside Magazine calls out Riverside as a Renaissance City. <br />Renaissance was a remarkable time for arts, culture, education, and quality of life. It was an <br />historic turning point of commerce, creativity and innovation. <br />Riverside is a Renaissance City - -a description that includes but goes well beyond "bricks and <br />mortar" projects. <br />
