The Puente Hills Preserve, managed by the Habitat Authority, has been protected for 30 years because community members cared enough to save the hills for wildlife, habitat, recreation and for all of the other amazing economic, health, environmental and quality of life benefits that come with open space preservation. We hope to see you on one of our trails which can be accessed via our trailheads: Sycamore Canyon, Powder Canyon, Hellman Park, Arroyo Pescadero, Hacienda Hills, and Turnbull Canyon.
The Habitat Authority currently faces an ongoing structural budget deficit which might require eliminating ranger services and reducing other critical services. While no decisions have been made, the Board of Directors is exploring local funding options, including a potential special tax of 1¢ per building square foot (less than $20 a year for the average homeowner), with annual adjustments limited to 3%, until ended by voters.
