This image depicts a serene outdoor setting with a variety of trees and foliage, showcasing a mix of greens and hints of autumn colors. There’s a basketball court visible in the background, partially surrounded by a chain link fence, which suggests the area might be part of a park or community recreation center. The foreground is covered by a pale blue pathway, adding a touch of color contrast to the natural greenery. The atmosphere appears quiet and calm, likely captured on a sunny day due to the bright and clear sky.

Not Active

We are disheartened to share that the GREEN SGV project was terminated by the current administration and is no longer moving forward. This has ended all associated projects, which were designed to promote climate resilience and reduce pollution across the San Gabriel Valley.

The premature cancellation of the three-year program affects key community initiatives that were funded by a $20 million grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. These projects encompassed a range of efforts, from planting trees and creating green schoolyards to installing solar panels and battery storage systems for low-income households. The end of this collaborative effort means these community-driven projects, which were the result of years of planning and engagement, can no longer move forward.

This week, we’re teaming up with our Active Streets team and the City of Baldwin Park to explore the City’s first greenway, recently opened to the public. We’ll ride the trail, do a bike audit to review future amenities and features that could be added, and pitch in for a light cleanup to help keep the greenway clean and safe. Bring your ideas, comments, and suggestions for the trail, we want to hear them.
