Glendora Closer To Preferential Parking Near Garcia Trail

Residents in the area of Sierra Madre Avenue and Yucca Ridge Road have petitioned Glendora officials to curb excessive parking in the area, amounting to a possible preferential parking district.

Glendora's Traffic Safety Committee recently passed a recommendation to the Glendora City Council to approve the implementation of a preferential parking district along the north portion of Sierra Madre from the western city limit to 1300 feet east of Yucca Ridge and Yucca Ridge Road from Hicrest Road to Leadora Avenue.

Residents seek a preferential parking district along the mentioned streets to address a high volume of hikers parking in the area to access Garcia Trail.

The petition satisfied the required two-thirds majority needed to consider a preferential parking district, with 21 of the 27 residents qualifying, according to city documents.

If approved by the City Council, residents would have to incur the costs to implement the preferential parking district, city officials said.

A public hearing will be scheduled sometime in the future, city officials said.
