New Monrovia News Weekly | FD vs PD | Odd Females | Doctor Buggy | 'Worst Case' Ruling | MHS Landmark?

A few items from today's Monrovia Coordinating Council:
 
~ Monrovia is getting a new paper news weekly starting Feb. 2, the Route 66 Weekly, which will be distributed in restaurants for people to read while waiting for their food. Publisher Shawn Davis says it will be light reading, with a mix of local and national information, and humor. It is starting in Monrovia but he plans to extend it to other communities soon. http://goo.gl/Kznes
 
~ The Monrovia Youth Baseball League is thinking of putting together a Monrovia Fire Department vs. Police Department baseball game, according to league representative Roger Llamas.
 
~ The Odd Couple play (Jan 12, 7:30 p.m. at Monrovia High) will be "The Odd Couple - Female Version," according to School Board Member Ed Gililland.
 
~ The Monrovia Historical Society has obtained a doctor's buggy, which has been used in parades.
 
~ Monrovia City Council member Becky Shevlin said that the California Supreme Court's redevelopment decisions were "the worst case scenario," with "a wrench thrown in everything." She said the sale of land to the Gold Line will happen, but the decision "affects what we are going to get out of the deal."
 
~ Monrovia preservationist Jim Wigton makes the case for designating the main Monrovia High building as a landmark.
