Part of Granada Hills to Become North Hills

Share via

Councilman Hal Bernson announced Friday that a sliver of Granada Hills will now be called North Hills, adding to the growing list of community name changes in the San Fernando Valley.

It was the second such change this week, following the announcement that part of Van Nuys had been added to Sherman Oaks.

Bernson decided to grant the Granada Hills change to North Hills after organizers submitted a petition signed by about 1,150 residents, more than two-thirds of the area’s homeowners. The new North Hills area is bounded by the San Diego Freeway, Lassen Street, Balboa Boulevard and Devonshire Street and includes about 1,600 residents, a spokesman for Bernson’s office said.
