The population at the time was estimated at less than 19,000. The District has <br />grown along with the Conejo Valley and the City of Thousand Oaks and there are now over 60 <br />parks and facilities with over 1,000 acres of developed park sites, plus multiple community <br />centers, historic structures, museums, community pools, and special facilities. Plus, in conjunction <br />with the City of Thousand Oaks, through COSCA, CRPD helps to conserve and manage over <br />12,000 acres of publicly -owned open space. Today, approximately 140,000 people live inside the <br />District's boundaries which includes the City of Thousand Oaks, plus the unincorporated areas <br />within the Conejo Valley. <br />ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICES <br />403 West Hillcrest Drive I Thousand Oaks, CA 91360-4223 <br />(805) 495-64711 FAX: (805) 497-3199 1 Email: parks@crpd.org I Website: www.crpd.org <br />
