3 issues in general
Public Comment on City Action
A San Dimas hardware store owner says the city damaged his property without giving him proper notice, and he’s asking the community to back him up. If that’s true, it’s a local accountability test: did the city follow its own notification rules, and who pays for the damage?
Sanctuary State Law Resolution
San Dimas didn’t end up becoming the first L.A. County city to formally oppose California’s sanctuary state law after a heated public meeting. The city backed off, so for now there’s no official local challenge to the state policy—just a loud civic fight over immigration politics.
Theft of City Property
Someone swiped a 300-pound bronze frog statue from San Dimas City Hall, and now the city has to figure out security and whether to replace it. It’s a bold, weird theft—and taxpayers may end up covering the cleanup.
