Renovation of nonconforming 1947 house on Callander Avenue
A 1947 single-family house sits in a commercial corridor where new single-family homes aren't allowed. Because the repair work tops 50% of the land's value, it needed a conditional use permit — now granted, the old house can be brought up to modern safety standards.

A long-standing trucking/tow yard business west of town hit code enforcement trouble with the county and needs a rezone. Riverbank suggested treating it as a transitional use with a sunset if it's ever annexed.
Youth Council's inaugural term wraps up
Riverbank's first Youth Council finished its 2025-26 term, raising about $2,000 for next year's group and running events from Dia de los Muertos to Chalk the Walk.
Meadowview subdivision grading change
A slope easement can now replace a required block retaining wall behind lots 18-31, cutting costs for the developer near Riverbank High School.
