3 Scope of Report This report is a result of an initial request from the Riverside County Workforce Investment Board. As our partner in workforce development and career preparation, the Riverside WIB is interested in defining the community college service areas to best collaborate with regional colleges and to include the correct colleges in employer specific partnerships. This report only includes the four community colleges in Riverside County: College of the Desert, Palo Verde College, Mt. San Jacinto College, and Riverside Community College District. Introduction A Report from the Chancellor s Office to the State Legislature in March 2005 stated that there is an inability to centrally define district/service area boundaries because of students attending across district boundaries. I have found this to be true. The 72 California community college districts maintain political boundaries that are legally defined. At the time of this report, the Chancellors Office is using voter precinct tables to help validate GIS boundary maps based on legal written descriptions. Unfortunately, many district mappings are not yet completed. I have requested service area and boundary information from the four community colleges in Riverside Counties. What follows is the listing and a GIS map of my best guess of the community college boundaries within Riverside Counties based on the zip codes I was able to obtain.
