Since its incorporation in 1960, the unprecedented growth of San Dimas has transformed the City from an essentially rural area to a well-balanced community offering industrial, commercial, and residential living. In addition to the 1,700 acre Frank G. Bonelli Recreational Area which lies within the City boundaries, there are many parks such as San Dimas Canyon Park, a city-owned golf course (San Dimas Canyon Golf Club), and over 27 miles of equestrian trails for riding. The city services include an extensive recreational program for youth and for senior citizens, and the City boasts a new modern City Hall, with excellent provisions made for County Sheriff and Fire Departments, along with a fine Los Angeles County Library and Engineering Regional Office.

Regional Planning
The Community Development Department is responsible for evaluating and making recommendations on regional issues such as traffic, housing, air quality, open space preservation and land use planning which require local solutions to protect and promote the quality of life in the region.
The department coordinates with regional planning agencies and surrounding jurisdictions on regional planning issues. Regional issues include, but are not limited to: traffic and circulation, air pollution, water, open space, wildlife habitat, housing, and flood control. Other responsibilities of this division are to provide environmental reviews of projects to ensure they are evaluated to be in conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act and review and analyze regional development projects to ensure compliance with the City’s General Plan, Municipal Code and other development standards and criteria.
