The Glendora Community Services Commission on Monday heard a presentation from the Glendora Trails Council on volunteer trail maintenance, safety and outreach, and voted 5–0 to receive and file the report.

Recreation supervisor Alma Villasenor introduced the volunteer council and its work, saying, “This fiscal year, the council had a budget of $27,500 allocated.” The funds support maintenance, printed maps and signage, volunteer events and tools needed for trail work, Villasenor said.

Jack Avenello, who identified himself as the Trails Council chair, described recent volunteer efforts and recruitment. “I wanna thank the city for bringing us Alma, Jasmine, and Matt who come to the meetings regularly. They’ve been a godsend,” Avenello said, noting recent Trail Day turnout and ongoing month-to-month volunteer recruitment.

Council members showed before-and-after photos of erosion control work, described efforts to widen worn tread and fill eroded areas, and said volunteers removed illegal dumping and established a defensible fire zone around a rock house during a single-day effort. Avenello said the group hopes to repaint a graffiti-marked fire ring by December and asked residents to join the last-Monday-of-the-month meetings.

Commissioners asked about storm damage and trail monitoring after heavy rain; Avenello said volunteers and conservancy partners use small berms and targeted repairs and that notification is often handled by word of mouth. Staff said the city’s parks-and-trails master plan will be put out to bid in early 2026 and is expected to take 9–12 months once a consultant is selected.

After the presentation Commissioner Eddie moved to receive and file the Trails Council report; the motion was seconded and passed unanimously, 5–0.

The commission did not adopt new policy at the meeting; staff said an e-bike ordinance is being developed separately and will come to the City Council for consideration.
