More Than Engineers—Proud Community Partners

October 2024

At RKA Consulting Group, we believe that building strong cities means more than designing infrastructure—it means showing up, supporting local traditions, and being part of the community fabric. That’s why we’re proud to continue our long-standing support of the City of San Gabriel’s Beer and Dumpling Festival, a vibrant celebration of food, culture, and neighborhood pride.
 
Hosted in the historic Mission District, the festival brings together food, music, and community spirit in celebration of San Gabriel’s rich cultural heritage. As repeat sponsors of this annual event, RKA is proud to stand alongside City leaders, local businesses, and residents to help make the celebration a success year after year.
 
Through our Building & Safety services, led by Raymond Tao, P.E., C.B.O., CASp, RKA plays a key role in supporting San Gabriel’s safe, accessible, and code-compliant development. From plan check to permitting, our work ensures that the spaces where people gather—like those featured in the festival—are safe, inclusive, and built to last.
 
Our participation in events like the Dumpling & Beer Festival reflects RKA’s commitment to being fully present in the communities we serve. From sponsoring events to attending community celebrations and supporting civic engagement, RKA is committed to being a trusted, visible partner—not just in the office, but out in the neighborhoods, too.
 
We’re grateful to the City of San Gabriel for the opportunity to be part of such a meaningful tradition and look forward to sharing many more dumplings (and smiles) in the years to come.
