Until about April 1951, the California Country Club was a beautiful golf course and club. It was approximately 100 acres nestled in the midst of a fine residential community known as Cheviot Hills. At that time the club was purchased and subdivided into 410 lots for single family homes and, as part of the subdividing, the property owners association (CCCHA) was created for the purpose of maintaining restrictions and building standards for high quality construction. This has all resulted in a community of fine homes in a quiet and secluded atmosphere.

The membership in this Association comes with the lot that each family owns. This allows you as a member to participate through the board of the Association and the committees that are part of it to support our efforts to keep our community safe, beautiful and within the CC and Rs established by the original covenants, codes and restrictions of 1952. The dues for this membership are collected annually.

Since that time, the Association's mission has greatly expanded to include efforts to reduce commuter traffic through our neighborhood and enhance safety in our community, increase security, fight aircraft noise and pollution, erect custom neighborhood signs and beautify the area. We also have arranged for public officials to speak to our community as various issues arise.

The Board of Directors is comprised of 17 homeowners of the CCCHA. The Association is a member of the Westside Civic Federation, and working with other groups has formed the Westside Neighborhood Council that was mandated by the city charter revisions. CCCHA has joined with the Cheviot Hills Homeowners Association, the Beverlywood Homeowners Association, CD5 and other homeowners' groups in developing traffic mitigation plans for our area and working on other issues of common concern.
