Site work and new construction of an educational facility in Riverside, California. Design plans call for the construction of a 31,816-square-foot, two-story above grade educational facility; and for site work for a educational facility.

Update: https://www.rccd.edu/admin/bfs/fpd/documents/5-year-plans/2026-30.pdf This project proposes to construct a new Cosmetology Building at Riverside City College (RCC). The new facility will accommodate the College's State approved enrollment forecast by increasing instructional capacity for dedicated laboratory and faculty office space. The proposed Cosmetology Building encompasses 31,816 Gross Square Feet (GSF) and consists of 21,675 Assignable Square Feet (ASF). Functional space within the building includes 17,440 ASF of laboratory space, 2,520 ASF of office, and 1,715 ASF of other support space. The proposed Cosmetology building will include modern technology and infrastructure compatible with specialized equipment needs for the career technical education programs that the building houses. Increasing the number and size of dedicated Cosmetology laboratories with modern technology/equipment will improve student success, completion rates, and train student for gainful employment in their chosen career pathway. The proposed Cosmetology building will be located on the lower campus adjacent to the Ramona Street Entrance in parking lot F. The new site of the new Cosmetology building will spur the development of a new career technical education core of facilities on campus, and is consistent with the 2018 Facilities Master Plan. The existing Cosmetology Building will be demolished as a secondary effect of the proposed project.

The project is included in the Riverside Community College's FY 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). As of February 10, 2026, this project is in the design phase. A firm timeline for construction has not been determined. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
