El Dorado Hills Background
Located just east of Sacramento, California El Dorado Hills CSD (EDHCSD) serves a large, developed suburban population of over 50,000. EDHCSD's tagline is 'Your Place To Play', but we do so much more than dedicating ourselves to ensuring every activity is safe, fun, and community-focused. We also provide waste/refuse collection, telecommunications (both done through franchise agreements), and perform CC&R enforcement.

EDHCSD is situated in an unincorporated area of El Dorado County, and because it is our mission to enhance the quality of life for El Dorado Hills Residents and visitors, we like to consider ourselves the Heart of El Dorado Hills. A key element of our culture is open communication with our community members, and because of this, we were awarded the District Transparency Certificate of Excellence for 2021 - 2025 by the Special District Leadership Foundation. EDHCSD is also the recipient of the 2019 Exceptional Public Outreach & Advocacy for a large special district, awarded by the California Special Districts Association.

If you would like to join an award-winning team, helping to make a significant difference in our community please submit your application materials. A flexible/hybrid schedule may be available.
