The Limonite Hustle • Friday Morning
Heavy morning traffic on Limonite near Archibald and the I-15. The new Walmart Supercenter (14100 Limonite Ave.) — which opened Jan. 14 — is adding morning errand traffic to the commute. Coffee at Eastvale Gateway is packed. With the 5th Annual Lantern Festival wrapped up last weekend at Roosevelt High, the city is sliding back into its regular suburban rhythm.

Sheriff Launches Election Probe — Eastvale's Own Police Force Is in the Middle of It
The Riverside County Sheriff's Office (RSO) — which provides Eastvale's law enforcement — confirmed Wednesday it is investigating alleged election irregularities in last November's special statewide election. The probe was triggered by a local group called the Riverside Election Integrity Team (REIT), which claims there is a discrepancy between ballots cast and ballots counted. The county's Registrar of Voters disputes the scale, saying the actual gap is only 103 ballots. The Board of Supervisors, County Executive Office, and Registrar are all cooperating.
