Celebrating Highland's Trails Day in 2018.

Trails system planning underway 


A provisional part of the Upper Santa Ana River Wash Habitat Conservation Plan includes a comprehensive Trail Management Plan that may include as many as a dozen local trails for residents to enjoy. Part of this plan includes the completion of a vital link completing a 110-mile course for the Santa Ana River Trail from the beaches to the mountains. Staff has been working with area partners on the early phases of the plan. There's still a lot of work to do, but once finished, the plan will provide plenty of opportunity for residents to escape and enjoy the beauty of the Wash.

District supports plan for water management


The San Bernardino Valley Water Conservation District has joined other agencies in the region to support an updated 2020 Integrated Regional Urban Water Management Plan coordinated under the direction of the San Bernardino Valley Muncipal Water District. The plan updates and merges two 2015 documents into one comprehensive document that includes feedback from both water resource and land use agencies. This will ensure adequate water supplies and quality to support future population and economic growth in the county.

Working together, the region will be able to withstand long-term drought.
