City of San Dimas Regular City Council - May 12th, 2026

The City of San Dimas held a regular City Council meeting on May 12, 2026, which included a variety of community recognitions, public comments, and a significant public hearing on a residential development project. The council approved a tentative parcel map and development plan for subdividing a single lot into two lots with new single-family residences, including an attached garage and detached ADUs. The project involved considerations of private street maintenance, parking concerns, landscaping with native trees, and a waiver of undergrounding utilities. Public comments highlighted concerns about parking, privacy, and street maintenance on the private Kimberly Avenue, which the city does not maintain. The council discussed potential mechanisms such as private assessment districts for street maintenance and acknowledged the challenges posed by state housing laws (SB9). The council voted to approve the project and waive the undergrounding requirement with a 4-1 vote. Other agenda items included community event announcements, recognition of local nonprofits and athletes, and updates on city services and safety initiatives. No contract awards or procurement decisions were reported during this meeting.
