F3
With five agencies, separate areas of responsibility and unclear geographical boundaries, the public is often confused about whom to call for assistance or to report vector activity. Response: The respondent disagrees partially with the finding. Each of the special districts have established boundaries adopted by Riverside LAFCO. These boundaries however may be unknown to the public at large.
