History

Pre-development

After the Spanish founded Mission San Gabriel in 1771, the Chino Hills were used extensively for grazing by mission cattle. During the Mexican Republic era, the hills were used as spillover grazing from such surrounding Mexican ranchos as Santa Ana del Chino and La Sierra Yorba. After Mexico ceded California to the United States in 1848, the land was still used primarily for grazing. Mission San Gabriel Arcángel was founded on The Feast of the Birth of Mary (September 8) in 1771. ...


This land was sold to Richard Gird, the founder of nearby Chino.[5] With the building of the Carbon Canyon Mineral Springs in the modern-day Sleepy Hollow region of the city and the new Los Serranos Country Club in Los Serranos, Chino Hills, California, the area became a destination for both Los Angeles tourists and bootleggers during the prohibition because of its isolation. For the same reason, Sleepy Hollow became a destination for hippies and artists during the 60s.[6] During the late 1980s, an incorporation effort began and in 1991, the city was incorporated with a population of 42,000.[7] Chino is a city in San Bernardino County, California, United States. ...

Development

Due to its topography of rolling hills, Chino Hills was primarily rural prior to the mid 1970s; most land was utilized for equestrian purposes and for dairies. Rapid and extensive housing developments followed throughout the 1980s and early 1990s, only slowing down in recent years. Most neighborhoods are arranged in a village-type format with strategically placed shopping centers and parks designed to be within walking distance of nearby homes.[6] For the Roman class, see Equestrian (Roman) A young rider at a horse show in Australia. ...

The meetings are broadcasted via the city's television station and streaming via the city's website.
