Highland People Directory Map

No single Highland directory lists every kind of person. City and school tools answer public-contact questions. The assessor and recorder work as name indexes for property and recorded documents. State rosters identify licensed professionals and agency contacts. The California Room preserves older resident, phone, and address directories. Each keeper controls a distinct slice.

Start with the directory that matches the relationship. A city department belongs in the municipal staff search. A teacher may appear under either of Highland’s school systems. A parcel owner starts at the assessor. An older address belongs in a reverse directory. Access rules and copy procedures for government records are covered in the Highland public records search.

Highland City Staff Directory

The City of Highland staff directory is the most local government people directory. It accepts a category, first name, or last name. Its category list is also a routing tool when no employee name is known. Choices include Administration, City Clerk, City Council, Building and Safety, Code Enforcement, Engineering, Fire Prevention, Police or Sheriff, Public Works, business and dog licensing, permits, and public records requests.

A typical entry shows the category or department, a phone number or extension, and a link to the category detail page. Some results are department contacts rather than named employees. The public listing gives City Hall at 27215 Base Line, Highland, CA 92346, phone 909-864-6861, with Monday through Thursday hours of 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. It does not expose personal home details.

The official Highland directory interface is shown below.

If a staff name does not appear, use the department line first, then the City Clerk’s email, mail, or phone request route for an existing public record.

Note: Department listings may not name an employee; the main line remains the best routing fallback.

Highland School Staff Directories

School directory geography splits across Highland. Redlands Unified serves eastern Highland, while San Bernardino City Unified serves western Highland. The Redlands USD staff directory displays staff names and email entries, and district school pages can add a location or role. The Highland Grove Elementary directory shows a staff member’s name, Highland Grove location, email link, and sometimes a title.

The district-wide people directory appears first.

Its school and department context helps separate people with similar names. At school level, the Highland Grove directory narrows the same kind of work contact to one campus.

For western Highland, search the relevant San Bernardino City Unified school page or use the California Department of Education record for Highland Pacific Elementary. That official school record lists the campus address and phone, administrator, fax, and district email domain. Do not assume every Highland postal address falls in the same district.

Note: Confirm the school system before searching, because east and west Highland directory entries are kept by different districts.

California Government Directories

San Bernardino County does not publish one complete employee people directory in the research set. Use county department contact pages for a known office, then the department main line or NextRequest when a public record is needed. At state level, the California Personnel Office Directory lists personnel-office contacts with names, phone numbers, email addresses, physical or mailing addresses, and agency codes for departments and campuses.

The California State Administrative Manual says agencies are responsible for timely state telephone directory submissions. That makes CPOD an agency-contact roster, not a broad list of every state worker. The official CPOD landing page is shown here.

Use an agency code or personnel contact to reach the correct state office. For county staff, the equivalent fallback remains the named department rather than an assumed countywide search.

Highland Property Owner Directories

The San Bernardino County Assessor’s govPIMS portal works as a property-owner directory. Its Name Search Utility accepts first and last names and lets the user include active or inactive names, plus formatted or unformatted names. Those uncommon switches help with past owners, trust names, compound surnames, initials, and entries stored in more than one style.

A parcel result can include owner name and relationship, ownership share, owner type, acquisition and document dates, inactive date, document numbers, situs address, mailing address, parcel history, and legal description. The owner mailing address may differ from the Highland property’s physical address and is often the most useful contact link. Still, the Assessor warns that it does not determine legal ownership. Recorded instruments must confirm that point.

Situs address

The physical location of the parcel.

Mailing address

Where assessment or tax correspondence goes; it may be outside Highland.

Inactive owner

A name retained in the ownership history rather than shown as current.

APN

The assessor parcel number used to connect the parcel, map, and related records.

Protected addresses may display “Protected - Gov. Code § 7928.200.” Respect that marker. It is a statutory privacy control, not a portal error.

Highland Recorded Party Directories

The County Recorder official-records index is a directory of parties to recorded acts. It identifies a document by number, date, title, and grantor or grantee names from 1925 to the present. A grantor gives or transfers an interest; a grantee receives it. Searching all spelling variations is the Recorder’s own advice, especially for Spanish or compound surnames and trust or entity names.

The index does not retrieve ownership by street address. Start at govPIMS for the parcel and owner name, then use that name or a linked document number in the Recorder directory. Document images and contents are not open online. View them at the Hall of Records Recorder-Clerk office in San Bernardino or the High Desert Government Center in Hesperia. Online non-certified copy orders can be emailed, certified copies are shipped, and mail requests are another route.

Other records can act like directories with tighter limits. San Bernardino Superior Court CAP lists parties in viewable cases. The voter roll is available only for approved statutory purposes and is not an open Highland people directory.

Highland Business People Directories

Business and professional names sit in several official directories. California SOS bizfile identifies entities, agents, filing status, and addresses. The SOS UCC search finds debtors or secured parties by name or file number. DCA License Search reports whether a covered professional license is current, expired, suspended, or revoked. State Bar profiles search attorneys by name or bar number. San Bernardino County fictitious business name records can identify registrants behind a local trade name.

The Highland Area Chamber of Commerce directory adds member business profiles. It is useful for current community contacts but reflects voluntary membership, not a government license roll. Highland’s city business-license desk can confirm local records by contact or public-record request because no open city license database was found.

The chamber’s current member directory appears below.

Cross-check a member profile with the relevant state, county, or city license source when legal status matters.

Note: Chamber membership is voluntary, so absence from its directory does not mean a Highland business lacks a license.

Highland Historical Directory Holdings

The Arda Haenszel California Room is the strongest nearby collection for historical Highland people directories. Its holdings bridge name-based, phone-based, and address-based research. The sources can place a resident or firm in a year, but an entry should be paired with a newspaper, census, deed, or vital record when identity is uncertain.

The California Room collection page is shown here.

The library route is essential because much of this run is not a free, full-text web directory. County Historical Archives and the California State Archives provide added fallbacks for old county groups and microfilm.

Highland Directory Eras

Highland’s directory history begins before the city government. San Bernardino County was created in 1853, the Great Register run predates the Highland townsite, and the city incorporated in 1987. As a result, an early resident may appear under a county precinct, East Highlands, San Bernardino, a school or water district, or a private group rather than under City of Highland records.

1. 1880-1886: The Great Register lists county voters before Highland’s townsite became the clear local label.
2. 1887-1968: City directories provide the main name-to-address run held by the California Room.
3. 1918-present: Telephone books add listed numbers and addresses.
4. 1976-present: Criss-cross directories reverse the search from address to occupant.
5. 1987-present: City incorporation creates a distinct Highland municipal record layer.

That sequence explains why the same family can move between directory labels without moving far. Match the year first, then the jurisdiction and source type.

Note: An old “Highland” reference may sit in a county or San Bernardino directory even when the modern address lies inside the city.

Highland Newspaper Name Directories

Newspapers behave like event-based people directories. The San Bernardino Sun archive can connect Highland names through obituaries, wedding notices, probate notices, land notices, school news, club lists, sports rosters, and civic items. The California Digital Newspaper Collection identifies a digitized Sun run from September 1, 1894 through October 30, 1998. CSUSB’s guide also describes searchable County Sun images beginning in 1894.

Search a surname with a street, school, firm, relative, or club name, then verify the result in a formal record or directory year. Obituaries can supply relatives and prior residences, while probate and land notices can connect a person to an estate or parcel. For historical school communities, official school libraries, district archives, local libraries, and alumni groups may hold yearbooks. No official Highland municipal cemetery database was found, so cemetery or funeral-home indexes should be treated as leads and confirmed.

The best access chain is digital newspaper search, California Room microfilm, county archives for official context, and the relevant custodian for a certified record. This keeps a Highland name match tied to its date and source.
