Notice of Department Realignment
 

Please be advised that in September, 2009, the Glendale City Council approved the realignment of the functions and responsibilities of the Community Development and Housing Department into three new, reformulated departments in order to improve service delivery to the community through coordination of programs and staff.  This realignment and transfer of functions and responsibilities is effective as of January 1, 2010.  The former Community Development and Housing divisions and their new respective departments are noted below:

Over the next few months, the WebPages for the new departments will be changing to reflect the reorganization.  At some point in the near future, the webpage for the Community Development and Housing Department will be discontinued and viewers will be redirected.
