Ask Glendora

The urban trails proposed along the flood control channels in Glendora are part of a larger initiative known as the Glendora People Movement Project. This project includes three urban trails along San Dimas Wash, Little Dalton Wash, and Big Dalton Wash, as well as first/last mile improvements designed to make walking and biking to the new Glendora Metro A-Line Station safer, more enjoyable, and more efficient.

In total, the project will bring over 10 miles of active transportation infrastructure to the City. Key features include:

• Fully separated bicycle and pedestrian paths
• Protected bike lanes and intersections
• A roundabout
• Enhanced pedestrian crossings

Project Updates (as of January 2025):

• The first segment of the San Dimas Wash Trail—from Louie Pompei Memorial Sports Park to Sunflower Avenue—has been completed.
• Construction of the remaining portion, extending from Sunflower Avenue to the Covina border at Arrow Highway and Grand Avenue, is expected to begin in 2025.
• Design plans for the first/last mile improvements at Glendora Avenue and Foothill Boulevard are progressing.
• The Little Dalton Wash and Big Dalton Wash Urban Trails are currently on hold as the City prioritizes the completion of the San Dimas Wash Trail and first/last mile improvements.

In California, tenant/landlord laws include rules regarding rent increases, evictions, security deposits, discrimination, and maintenance. Tenants have a right to live in safe and habitable rental unit, privacy and quiet enjoyment, and dispute eviction notices. Tenants have the responsibility to keep the rental unit same and habitable, keep themselves and guests from disturbing neighbors, pay rent on time, and comply with the terms of their rental agreement.  ADU renters are covered by the same housing laws as other renters in California.
