Good Hope Community honors pioneer Willie Moses with memorial resolution

The Riverside County Board of Supervisors held a regular meeting on April 30, 2024, where several key topics were addressed, including community memorials and a closed session.

The meeting began with a brief report from the Executive Office, which indicated no significant updates. Following this, the Board moved to memorials and adjournments. A notable mention was made of Willie Moses, a resident of Good Hope who recently passed away at the age of 102. Moses was recognized for her contributions to the community, including the establishment of a school, a community center, and a fire station, as well as her efforts in supporting elderly and low-income residents through a food program. The Board submitted a memorial resolution to honor her legacy, which will be presented to her family.

The Chair proposed a motion to adjourn the meeting in memory of Moses, which was put to a vote.

The meeting then transitioned to a closed session, with the County Council reporting no anticipated reportable actions. The Board scheduled the closed session to begin at 12:40 PM, allowing a brief intermission before reconvening.

Overall, the meeting highlighted the Board's commitment to honoring community members and addressing local issues, while also managing procedural matters efficiently.
