Two Inland Empire representatives have reintroduced a bill that, if passed, will give Eastvale one ZIP code.
Since its incorporation 14 years ago, the city’s multiple zip codes has caused confusion among some businesses and residents, according to multiple reports.
The bill by Rep. Ken Calvert, R-Corona, and Norma Torres, D-Ontario, would leave the city with one ZIP code. A similar bill failed to make it out of a House of Representatives’ committee during the last congressional session.
“For years, city leaders, residents, and the local business community have consistently expressed their desire for a distinct ZIP code to the United States Postal Service, which has refused to take this step,” Calvert said in a statement.
Except for some areas near Norco, Eastvale (pop. 70,000) shares the 92880 ZIP code with parts of Corona, Chino and several unincorporated areas. It also shares the 91752 ZIP code with part of Jurupa Valley, according to the reports.
