MEASURE “V” SUPPORTS ECONOMIC GROWTH

Measure V directly contributes to the economic vitality of Ridgecrest by ensuring that our infrastructure is reliable and our public safety is strong. Businesses are more likely to invest in a community where roads are well-maintained, public safety is assured, and essential services are consistently funded. This creates jobs, attracts new residents, and increases the overall economic health of the city.

In addition to creating a stable environment for existing businesses, Measure V also plays a role in attracting new businesses to Ridgecrest. A well-maintained infrastructure and strong public safety record make Ridgecrest an appealing location for new enterprises, which in turn stimulates job creation and economic growth.

By renewing Measure V, we are investing in the economic future of Ridgecrest. Continued funding through Measure V will allow our city to keep pace with the demands of a growing population and an evolving economy, ensuring that Ridgecrest remains a hub of opportunity in Eastern Kern and the Sierra Corridor.
