City officials have finally released a date for the opening of the newly expanded
parking lot at the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park. City Manager Tony Ramos
announced that the north lot will officially open Friday, March 22.
However, in order to prepare for the opening, the Wilderness
Park will have to close first. The city will shut off access to the park
entirely on Wednesday and Thursday, March 20 and 21 as construction is
finalized. In addition to park closure, Mills Road north of Mt. Baldy and the
Wilderness Park’s south lot at Mills and Mt. Baldy will also be closed to
traffic.
Parking restrictions on Mills and Mt. Baldy along with
enforcement of the new parking lot permits and metered parking will begin on
April 1, according to the city. Annual permits are now available
at Claremont City Hall and the Alexander Hughes Community Center for $75 each.
Claremont residents may obtain a maximum of 2 free passes by presenting an id
or utility bill. City Hall is located at 207 Harvard Ave. The Hughes Center is
at 1700 Danbury Rd. For more information, call the city at 399-5460.
