City of Sierra Madre
Sierra Madre is a city in Los Angeles County, California whose population was 10,917 at the 2010 U.S. Census, up from 10,580 at the time of the 2000 U.S. Census. The city is in the foothills of the San Gabriel Valley below the southern edge of the Angeles National Forest. Pasadena and Altadena are to its west, with Arcadia to its south and east. Sierra Madre is known as “Wisteria City”, and its city seal is decorated with a drawing of the now widely known 500-foot (150 m) vine. It is also called the “Village of the Foothills” and was an All-America City in 2007. [Wikipedia]
The City is a full-service municipality operating with a $18 million budget that funds 61 full-time employees assigned to eight operating departments. Government services are primarily funded by property taxes, local taxes, and user fees. [Official City Hall Website]
