Meet Chris Castorena

Eastside Neighbor. Planning Commissioner. Organizer.

Chris Castorena is a proven leader focused on responsible growth, local job pathways, and housing people can afford. Raised on Banning’s Eastside, he believes city decisions should strengthen neighborhoods, not displace residents. Chris is committed to practical solutions and long-term stability for Banning’s future.

Chris' priorities

Lower Costs. Local Jobs. Stronger Neighborhoods.

Banning should grow in a way that benefits residents, not outside speculation. We can lower costs, create better local job opportunities, and strengthen neighborhoods by aligning development with infrastructure and community needs.

Chris is running for City Council to focus on practical, long-term solutions that keep Banning stable, affordable, and opportunity-driven.

More Homes Neighbors Can Afford

About the Banning City Council

The job that decides what gets built and who benefits.

Banning is growing, but too many residents aren’t feeling the upside. We’re paying more, commuting more, and still not getting the basics: safe streets, homes people can afford, and jobs that pay.

City Council sets the rules for housing, infrastructure, public safety, and small business. This office should deliver real relief and real results, not inside deals.

I’m running to deliver a practical agenda: lower costs, more homes people can afford, stronger local job pathways, and infrastructure that comes first.
